Two practices.
One operator.
Santikou Ventures is a boutique advisory built on a rare triangle — founding and selling a hospitality-HR tech company, operating multi-property luxury hotels, and building software. An HR practice grounded in years of operating. A Hospitality-Tech practice grounded in years of building.

The triangle
Few advisors in the Mediterranean have founded and sold a hospitality-HR tech company, run multi-property luxury hotels operationally, and can build software. The firm is built on top of that triangle — and so is every engagement.
Practice
Two practices.
HR Hospitality
Eight service lines across talent acquisition, workforce planning, fractional CHRO, leadership, openings, M&A, ESG, and industry programmes.
Hospitality-Tech
Five service lines — tech strategy for hotels, GTM advisory for founders, venture and investor work, bespoke builds, and M&A.
Founder
Katerina Santikou.
Founder of Workathlon (acquired by Kariera Group, 2023), Business Development Director at Santikos Collection, Forbes 30 Under 30 and Fortune 40 Under 40 honoree — and the single point of accountability behind every Santikou Ventures engagement.
