Prometheus represents a basic principle of liberalism, according to which the liberal man raises his stature not only for his own freedom, but for the freedom of others. Prometheus myth also symbolizes trust and man\u2019s ability to manage knowledge together with the responsibility that this entails. We are committed to ensure that PROMETHEUS awards develop into a real institution for liberalism in Greece, in the years to come!<\/p>\n<p>More photos: <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/zHN5m6\">https:\/\/goo.gl\/zHN5m6<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Media Sponsors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"images\/\u03c3\u03ba\u03b1\u03b9.jpg\" alt=\"\u03c3\u03ba\u03b1\u03b9\" width=\"117\" height=\"50\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"images\/\u03c6\u03b9\u03bb\u03b5\u03bb\u03b5\u03c5\u03b8\u03b5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2.jpg\" alt=\"\u03c6\u03b9\u03bb\u03b5\u03bb\u03b5\u03c5\u03b8\u03b5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2\" width=\"119\" height=\"45\" style=\"display: block;
