Christos Marafatsos is an energetic entrepreneur with a passion for representing the Greek-American community in political spaces.
For Christos Marafatsos, being a Greek-American is about more than just cultural identity. A 1st generation Greek-American himself, Marafatsos is motivated by his heritage in a unique way. While his commitment to his Greek Orthodox values certainly guide his approaches, Marafatsos credits his culture with so much more. In fact, the entrepreneur’s energy is often directly propelled by the drive and motivation he’s inherited from the Marafatsos family. Determined to grip innovation by the horns and dictate its direction, this first generation Greek-American is passionate about shaking up the playing field. For that mindset, he cites his 1st generation Greek-American status as the source of inspiration. Taking on a challenge and stepping outside of his comfort zone simply runs in the family!
Political Presence
During Donald Trump’s administration as POTUS, Christos Marafatsos represented the Greek-American community not only personally and professionally, but politically as well.
Irrevocably proud of his Greek heritage and Greek Orthodox foundation, Christos Marafatsos is driven by the opportunity to represent the Greek-American population. During Donald J. Trump’s presidency, Marafatsos represented Greek Voices for Trump as Chairman and the National Diversity Coalition (NDC) for President Trump as Vice Chairman. Going forward, Marafatsos looks forward to enriching the representation of Greek-Americans in professional and political spaces.
Greek Voices for Trump
Christos Marafatsos proudly supported POTUS Trump from Day 1. In 2016, he even served as an advisor during Trump’s campaign. Marafatsos was honored to be offered the role of Vice Chairman on the NDC, but decided to take the responsibility of representing Greek-Americans a step further when he developed Greek Voices for Trump in 2020. A collaborative effort, the board came about with an infusion of ideas from Marafatsos, senior members of the campaign and POTUS Trump himself.
