Continuous Learning: Expanding Horizons Through Harvard Real Estate Management

Real estate is undergoing a profound transformation — shaped by new technologies, evolving demographics, affordability pressures, and a growing responsibility toward sustainable development.

This month, Dennis Lidis, Founder & Chairman of LIDIS S.A., joins the Real Estate Management Executive Program at Harvard University part of our ongoing commitment to leadership excellence and global best practice.

At Harvard, senior executives from around the world engage with current themes redefining the industry:

• AI and data intelligence reshaping asset management and investment decision-making.

• Affordability and urban regeneration driving new models for inclusive housing and community value.

• Sustainable development and ESG standards becoming central to institutional capital allocation.

• Dynamic market cycles demanding flexible, technology-driven operating platforms.

For LIDIS, participation in this program reflects a deliberate step toward deeper alignment with global standards of excellence in real estate investment and development. It supports the company’s long-term vision of institutional maturity and international reach, strengthening its capacity to connect insight with execution, and to apply global intelligence to the ongoing transformation of Greek real estate.

“The future of real estate lies in adaptability — combining intelligent design, ethical investment, and the human experience. Harvard’s REM program aligns with how we think and act at LIDIS: as innovators, long-term stewards, and responsible investors.”

— Dennis Lidis, Founder & Chairman, LIDIS S.A.

As LIDIS continues its journey toward institutional scale, this step reflects the company’s philosophy of Different Thinking — understanding that true value is created not by following trends, but by anticipating them.
