Thirty years, one way of working: seriousness, no surprises.
Our story starts in 1996, with the first program we delivered — before there was an internet in Greece. From DOS and BBS to Google and ChatGPT, we have watched technology change many times. The way we work has not: we listen, we propose something concrete, we build it properly, and we stay by your side.
From 1996 to today.
We started by writing software — the first program was delivered in 1996, when the internet in Greece barely existed. Websites came with Google, when few Greek businesses had one, and SEO came with them. Along the way came e-commerce, digital marketing, custom applications and ERP integrations. Today, through mindd, the group’s AI company, the third piece was added. Web development, marketing and artificial intelligence from the same team — that is what sets us apart, because none of the three truly pays off without the other two.
Our office is in Nea Smyrni and most of our clients are in the southern suburbs and the centre of Athens. That is no accident: we prefer to see the client in person, walk their shop or plant, and understand how they work before proposing anything.
Our team includes IT and telecommunications engineers with experience from industry, energy and telecoms. This means that when a project needs integration with SAP, with industrial equipment or with a public database, it is not the first time we hear of it.
Who we serve
More than 1,000 businesses to date, dozens in ongoing monthly partnership: retail e-shops, pharmacies, insurance companies, courier companies, industrial facilities, healthcare professionals, tourism businesses. From the national power company to the neighbourhood pharmacy, the approach is the same: what does this business need in order to grow?
What we do not do
We do not sell ready-made packages. We do not promise “first place on Google in a month”. We do not lock clients into platforms they cannot leave. And we do not deliver anything we have not tested first.
Results, not activity
We are judged by revenue, leads and the time our clients save. Not by the number of deliverables.
Honesty in the proposal
If something makes no sense for your business, we will tell you — even if it costs us the project.
Client ownership
Code, domain, ad accounts, data: everything in your name, with documentation so anyone can continue.
Long-term partnership
Most of our clients have been with us for years. We do not consider that a coincidence.
From DOS to AI. The same way of thinking.
We are not an agency that “discovered” digital yesterday. We are programmers who saw every wave from the start — and each time, learned it in depth before selling it.
- 1989
The first computer: an 8086 running DOS.
Black screen, command line, no graphics. That is where we learned to write code — and to respect a machine's resources.
- 1996
Our first program is delivered.
Built out of passion — and it became our first professional engagement, our first case study. The internet barely exists; there are BBS boards and terminals. We work in DOS — a text environment strikingly similar to today's AI: you type, it answers.
- 1998
Google is born. Our SEO begins.
We follow it from day one and do SEO from before the word even existed in Greece. We understand early that search will become every business's front door — and that whoever understands how the algorithm thinks will have the advantage.
- 2004
Experience becomes substance.
E-Grow takes the shape it has today: one team handling websites, e-shops, SEO and promotion for businesses. Our years in programming let us build things others merely set up.
- 2009–2011
The handbooks confirm the method.
When “The Art of SEO” and Search Engine Land's “Periodic Table of SEO” come out, we are already years deep into SEO. We adopt them as a common language with our clients: principles — technical foundation, content, trust, user experience — not tricks that die with the next update.
- 2010–2020
E-commerce, mobile, Google Ads, Meta Ads.
Every new channel enters our work only after we have measured it. The businesses we have served pass 1,000. Custom applications and ERP integrations for large organisations.
- 2022
ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude. The text environment returns.
For us it was not a shock — it was a return to something familiar. We start the first AI systems in production for clients: agents, automation, forecasting.
- Today
Web development, marketing and AI from one team.
Ten AI systems in production, advertising inside ChatGPT and the AI platforms, and the same way of working since 1996: seriousness, no surprises.
E-Grow today
This is how we work every project.
From a landing page to an AI system, the steps are the same.
We listen
Before proposing anything, we understand how your business works, what it sells, to whom, and what is holding it back.
We plan
A concrete proposal with goals, deliverables, timeline and cost. You know from the start what you will get.
We build
Work is staged. You see progress, you test in a sandbox, and nothing goes to production until it works.
We measure & improve
A monthly report with the numbers that matter. What underperforms gets changed; what works gets reinforced.
Selected clients

Tell us what you want to achieve. You will get a concrete proposal with scope, timeline and cost — not generalities.
