Welcome to Iris.Investments

Because Playing It Safe Is Boring.

Who am I?

I’m Dimitris Kourasis, entrepreneur, investor, and professional risk-taker. I’ve built and sold businesses across Europe, jumped into markets where others hesitated, and survived enough investment cycles to know that textbook strategies are for textbooks.

Dimitris Kourasis: Investor, Builder, Risk-Taker

I don’t just invest—I build, scale, and take smart risks. From tech startups to real estate and market strategies, I back ventures that challenge the norm and create real impact.

I believe playing it safe is overrated—real growth comes from bold moves, sharp instincts, and a deep understanding of how markets shift. If an idea has the potential to shake things up and scale fast, I’m all in.

What the Hell Do I Invest In?

Tired of the same old, dull investment talk? So am I. That’s why Iris.Investments is different. No suits. No robotic finance bros throwing around buzzwords like “synergy” and “diversification.” Just smart, high-risk, high-reward investments fueled by gut instinct, deep market knowledge, and an unhealthy obsession with building things that actually matter.

Tech & Startups

If it’s disruptive, scalable, and a little insane, I’m interested. Bonus points if it pisses off traditional industries.

Market Madness

Stocks, commodities, and whatever else keeps traders awake at night. Because volatility is just another word for opportunity.

The Iris.Investments Philosophy

(If You Can Call It That)

Risk Is a Feature, Not a Bug. Calculated risk beats blind caution every time.
If It’s Boring, I’m Not Interested. Growth comes from change. Change is never boring.
Work With People, Not Just Numbers. Numbers matter, but so do instincts.
If your Excel sheet could make decisions, we’d all be out of business.

Betting on Bold Ideas

Some build careers. We build businesses. For over a decade, we have launched, scaled, and exited companies across industries—hospitality, travel, sports-tech, and now real estate and strategic investments.
From co-founding one of Greece’s fastest-growing travel platforms to securing EU funding for disruptive tech.
We have always been drawn to ideas that challenge the status quo.

Iris.Investments is next chapter—an investment fund focused on high-impact ventures, smart real estate, and market opportunities others overlook. If you’re building something with potential, let’s connect.

You’ve got a wild idea, an ambitious project, or a pitch that actually makes sense? I’m listening.

Final Note:
If You’re Looking for a Traditional Investment Fund, This Ain’t It.
But if you want a partner who actually builds, takes risks, and plays the investment game with an edge—Iris.Investments might just be what you’re looking for.
