John Varsamis, our founder and CEO, is a senior Web Developer with over three decades of experience. Holding an MSc and two degrees, John has successfully launched thousands of projects throughout his career.
He was a true pioneer in his home country, Greece—responsible for some of the earliest milestones of the digital era there: launching the second live website in 1992, building the first national real estate database in 1994, and establishing Greece’s very first digital agency in 1995.
John’s deep involvement with the internet soon brought him to the United States in 1996, where he had the opportunity to contribute to one of the world’s largest companies, witnessing—and helping shape—the early foundations of the internet as we know it today. Since then, he has continued to evolve every year, earning more than 50 certifications and receiving hundreds of awards for his contributions and leadership.
What sets John apart is not just his expertise but his philosophy. His passion for perfection and belief in respect-driven business practices are values he instills in our entire team:
“There is no such thing as a big or small client. There are people, partners, and businesses that need our help. If we do it right, we lead them to the future—and they will always be thankful. Respect your client and treat their business as if it were your own, your family’s, or your friends’.”
This guiding principle has always been John’s motto, and it continues to shape the culture and direction of The Web Empire today.
