State Minister Akis Skertos on Monday revealed that British universities are interested in founding medical school departments in the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki, due to the reform now underway to allow the founding of non-state universities in Greece.
Addressing a “Macedonia” newspaper conference in Thessaloniki, he said the specific reform, which also envisages parallel support for state universities as “the main pillar of the higher education,” was a huge opportunity for the city, which “due to its geographic position can attract major investments”.
