It's not about giving them a job or anything.
It's more about the problem that they are blocked due to capital controls and transaction restrictions.
In fact they even can't pay hosters or domain registrars anymore.
Not because they haven't got the money, it's because they can't do transactions.
That's why you can help by offering them your SaaS service for free and in the future we add more stuff to the page to help connecting greek startups who needs help with these basic costs and people / companies which are willing to help.
It's really only about supporting them to get through this crisis and keep the basic operations up and running.

- iwwr 11y agoOne of the crimes being committed on the Greek populace is the financial system blockade, with blocked access to basic banking services and electronic transactions. The ECB has decided that Euros in a Greek bank account are worthless (apart from a very small daily cash allowance), similarly to what happened to Cyprus recently. If anything, banks should provide at least money-handling services and should be separate from the more speculative, financial engineering side. Money residing in accounts is not borrowed and does not belong to the government or the ECB, it's not an emergency piggy bank for the state. Access to modern financial services and online transactions should be a human right. Without those modern business becomes impossible and so does a modern economy.
