What happens when innovation starts not with code, but with connection?
In the latest episode of the Start Build & Grow podcast, Kimolian Academy founder Eleni Lialiamou joins a conversation that gets to the root of why real growth — the kind that lasts, scales, and serves — begins with community.
This isn’t just another conversation about tools or trends. It’s about how people, ideas, and shared purpose come together to shape the future of AI — and why real innovation happens when we build together.
Eleni reflects on her work at Kimolian Academy, where learners from around the world explore AI hands-on, in deeply collaborative spaces. Through feedback, teamwork, and experimentation, they create solutions that are as ethical as they are innovative. It’s a glimpse into what happens when learning is shaped by community, not competition — and why that makes all the difference.
The episode also explores a growing shift in how we think about intelligence: moving from individual expertise to collective knowledge. When AI is nurtured in a community, it becomes more inclusive, more adaptable, and ultimately more impactful. It starts to reflect the people it’s built with — not just the algorithms behind it.
If you’re a builder, educator, product designer, or startup founder trying to use technology for good, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear.

At Kimolian Academy, we believe exponential growth doesn’t happen from tech alone — it happens when technology meets mission, and innovation stays human. This episode is proof of just how powerful that meeting point can be.
