Evangelos Marinakis first made his name in the shipping industry. While making his way up the ladder in the shipping industry, Evangelos began eyeing different investments. Deciding to branch out with his business portfolio, he made calculated investments in both football and media in different countries, Greece and the UK.\r\nIn 2017, Alter Ego, Evangelos’ media company, acquired the Lambrakis Press Group, which is Greece\'s oldest media group and includes the pinnacle of newspapers “Ta Nea” and “To Vima”, two of the country\'s most established and best known daily and Sunday weekly newspapers respectively; as well as the popular news portal in.gr and magazines: Mommy, Geusignostis and Vita.\r\nSince 2010, Evangelos has been both a leader and majority shareholder in Olympiacos FC. Olympiacos has a track record of being one of the most successful football clubs in Greece. Since his proprietorship of Olympiacos, they have won seven consecutive championships as well as holding the highest-ranking position in Europe, since its inception. \r\nIn 2017, he broadened his sporting horizons further when he became the majority owner of storied English football club Nottingham Forest FC. Evangelos is quoted in https://www.nottinghamforest.co.uk/news/with saying, “What we have achieved in national and European football with Olympiacos FC, we want to duplicate with Nottingham Forest. Forest is one of England’s oldest clubs and one with a proud history of national and international excellence. Our objective is to bring back the glory days. We are football people to the core and we love and know the game. Our team has demonstrated that we know how to create success in football by having won title after title with Olympiacos in Greek football”, said Marinakis. \r\n“We want to rekindle Forest’s past success and we are committed to the club for the long-term. What the club needs is a solid and time-tested management, a professional board, and above all, the best possible football management and players. Our senior team will be Nicholas Randall QC as Chairman, IoannisVrentzos as CEO, Samantha Gordon as CFO, and David Cook as CCO, and they will deliver just that.\r\nEvangelos has shown that he has a unique type of vision, mixed with passion and desire to lead industries into the future. His perception affects every business that he touches, not just for a moment, but that will last for generations. For example, Mr. Marinakis said in https://www.nottinghamforest.co.uk/news“Nottingham Forest’s supporters have been magnificent in a difficult season and now my Management Team wants their voices to be heard and include their input in our decision-making. These forums will make that possible for the first time and in a meaningful way.”
