Dimitris Papastergiou, minister of Digital Governance, Greece, pointed out that the app, once fully functional, may eliminate the need of specific jobs in the tourist sector, but it will also end up creating different jobs. Talking of the development of the app, he said, “We have to make our own models, create our own technology, our own infrastructures such as Daidalos, data centres with a green sign, but also change educational programmes at universities to ensure positive results.”
