The Story Behind Astralón
Astralón is an independent creative & digital marketing hub based in Neos Kosmos, Athens, founded by Ares Buras and Chryssa Stavridou. Since 2017, we have collaborated with more than 180 brands, organisations and artists. From corporate to cultural, from NGOs to hospitality — Athens, Thessaloniki, Barcelona, Antwerp, and beyond.
We are a team that reads books, goes to concerts, watches great films, and visits art exhibitions. That curiosity feeds directly into the work we do for clients every day.
With over ten years of industry experience across culture and art, education, publishing, the music industry, hospitality, fashion, and e-commerce, we bring strategic depth and creative range to every brief.
Our services align creativity, design, strategy, data analysis, and artificial intelligence, or as Jean-Michel Jarre puts it, "Augmented Imagination." We believe it's their combined force that delivers meaningful, lasting results.
Our Mission
To help the artists, brands and organisations we work with grow, thrive financially and fulfil their purpose, while our own team evolves alongside them.
To design solutions around each partner's needs — and turn their goals into real results.
To create meaningful connections, every day.
Our Vision & Values
To bring creativity and beauty to light.
To build a bridge between the dream and the business plan.
To be real and act responsibly.
To be a force for good — for society and for the planet.
Our Commitment to People & Planet
Although Astralón is only nine years old and technically a small company (with an in-house team of 2–10 people), we have made social contribution a core part of our mission. We are committed to supporting and donating a portion of our gross income to non-profit organizations and individuals in need. Our goal is to help combat poverty, promote sustainability, advance social justice and equality, foster inclusion, and support other philanthropic initiatives that reflect the values and vision our team believes in and actively upholds.
