Speaking on his appointment, Papakonstantinou said: “I am very excited to have joined ASI in the capacity of Managing Director. As the fit-out specialist of the ASGC group of companies I look forward to expanding the business initially across the UAE with ambitions to progress further afield in the years to come. With the extensive experience of ASI and its in-house capabilities, our focus will be on hospitality, residential and other major fit-out projects. One of my personal passions is also finding new and innovative ways of building which aligns very well with ASGC’s culture and we intend on having ASI lead the industry in such innovations in future.”
