Pioneering Greeks: George Spanoudakis & Panagiotis Chatzidakis, Co-Founders of Pinnatta App

Welcome to “Pioneering Greeks”, the weekly column of GTP Headlines, which highlights the Greeks that stand out for their creative thinking in the business world. “Pioneering Greeks” is a collaboration between LoveGreece.com and Greek Travel Pages (GTP).

This week we introduce George Spanoudakis and Panagiotis Chatzidakis, the co-founders of Pinnatta App, an application for smartphones using Android and IOS technology, that allows users to send “live” messages, consisting not only of text, but also of sounds, fancy animations and innovative graphics.

This new media type combines sound, animation, personalization elements and interactivity gestures to turn every single message into a unique interactive experience that evokes feelings and emotions. It offers tons of ready-to-use designs for any special or everyday communication need. People can personalize them by adding their own video, photo, voice or text and share them instantly.

Recipients will not only see the message but actually play with it by tapping, dragging, rubbing, shaking or even blowing their device to experience it. In a few words, the recipient of the message can open it and “play” with it until he reveals his digital “gift” sent by a friend.

Pinnatta App is available for messengers, dating apps and keyboards.

The app was financed by investors in Silicon Valley as the unstable economic situation didn’t allow George Spanoudakis to find support in Greece.

Inspired by the dynamism and creativity of the Greek entrepreneurial spirit, LoveGreece was founded in 2013 as an initiative to boost and promote the country’s image abroad by profiling talented and successful Greeks. With their ethos and vision, Greece’s entrepreneurs and professionals are an important aspect of the country worth highlighting to the world. LoveGreece is powered by Gina Mamidaki, the founder of the G & A Mamidakis Foundation.
