Zopounidis Group brings together three ventures founded by Dimitris Zopounidis: a business analytics and data science advisory firm, an aviation intelligence observatory for Crete and the Mediterranean, and a platform for data-driven aviation research. Each operates independently. What they share is a method: quantitative evidence, explicit assumptions, and analysis built around the decision it has to inform.
Business analytics and data science advisory. Decision-support models, performance measurement frameworks and analytical tools for organisations in infrastructure, utilities, finance and tourism.

Aviation and tourism intelligence for Crete and the wider Mediterranean. Its monthly Aviation & Tourism Intelligence Report covers route networks and connectivity, operator concentration and risk, aviation-to-tourism alignment, and the forward outlook, for airport, hotel and destination leadership.

Data-driven aviation insights and research. Analyses of airports, airlines, connectivity, aviation finance and sustainability, with dedicated coverage of the airports of Crete.
Visit Aviationlife.gr →Conclusions follow from data that can be inspected and reproduced, not from assertion.
Sources, assumptions and limitations are documented with every deliverable.
Analysis is framed around the decision it informs. Where objectives conflict, trade-offs are made visible through multi-criteria decision analysis.
Each venture keeps its own mandate. Advisory engagements do not shape the Observatory's findings or the editorial content of Aviationlife.gr.
The Group's methods draw on research at the Data Science Laboratory, School of Production Engineering and Management, Technical University of Crete.
