MOLONGLO DIRECTOR NIKOS KALOGEROPOULOS WILL SPEAK ABOUT DIRECTING GROWTH AT THE PERIPHERY AS PART OF CONTEXT IN CANBERRA

NIKOS KALOGEROPOULOS
Property Developer 

Nikos Kalogeropoulos is a Director of Molonglo, a property developer established in 1964 with projects in Athens, Melbourne and Canberra.

Molonglo sees property development as the willing of architecture into being; from an abstraction ofdrawings and ideas into something to be touched, inhabited and lived in. They are committed to the creation of landscape-led built environments that foster connections between people.

Molonglo’s diverse projects include the mixed-use neighbourhood of NewActon and Hotel Hotel (now Ovolo Nishi); a new centre for creative work in Collingwood, Melbourne; the sensitive restoration of a series of buildings in Athens giving them a new life through careful renovation and repair; and a 14-hectare neighbourhood named Dairy Road in Canberra where light industry, working, living, recreation and entertainment will take place in a native landscape setting.

After initially studying philosophy and ancient history at the ANU, Nikos graduated with a Bachelor of Economics and Bachelor of Commerce before completing a CPA. After various consultancy engagements including the Commonwealth Commercialisation Task Force and the International Education Foundation (New Delhi), he held a number of senior roles in Government. In 2007, Nikos received the Commissioner for Public Administration Award, recognising his contributions to Strategic Finance. In 2008 he was appointed CFO of Territory and Municipal Services and the ACTION Transport Authority before joining Molonglo in 2011.

Nikos is also co-founder and board member of the Australian Dance Party. He enjoys performing live music, stand-up poetry, and engaging in discussions on urbanism and philosophy.
