MATTHEW ZORBAS TALK

Matthew is an exceptional creative consultant and lecturer who captivated me from our very first meeting.

As it happened, I met his mother first — on a flight from Athens to Cyprus. Friendly and engaging, she had just arrived from Milan, and we soon found ourselves immersed in a conversation about fashion. During our exchange, I shared my own story with Chloe, mentioning that I was in Athens overseeing the production of furniture we designed for Chloé’s LA stores. That’s when she spoke about Matthew — a fellow Cypriot whose international success I was already familiar with.

Not long after, I had the pleasure of joining their family for lunch, where our conversation was lively, inspiring, and full of ideas. Following that meeting, Matthew invited me to collaborate on the stage design for his upcoming talk, “Beyond Borders.” Together, we carefully curated pieces from our studio to create a stage that reflected his vision: empowering local businesses in Cyprus to reach global heights.

During “Beyond Borders,” Matthew’s talk ignited a spark — a call to action to embrace technological innovation while safeguarding our creative industries. He spoke about the importance of nurturing our local talent and enabling entrepreneurs to pave the way forward. His message continues to resonate: to inspire change and foster a culture of growth in Cyprus, ensuring that our innovations not only flourish but lead the charge.
