Georgios (George) Anastasopoulos is a Greek–American Engineer, PhD, resident of Los Angeles, California.

Biography

Georgios (George) Anastasopoulos (in Greek: Γεώργιος Αναστασόπουλος) is born in Athens, Greece, on February 7, 1965. His father Ioannis Anastasopoulos (1929–2015), from Kentriko, Messenia, Greece, was a Mathematician and served as high-school principal. His mother, Nikoletta Pantazopoulou (1931–2015) was born at Filiatra, Messenia, Greece. He is married to Vasiliki Karvela, from Koroni, Messenia, Greece and they have one son, Ioannis Anastasopoulos, Mathematician.

In 2015, he was awarded by the European Organization for Quality (EOQ) the Georges Borel Award for international achievements being at the edge of the development, use and diffusion of quality at international level through his professional activities and behaviors, personally contributing to the development of the European Quality movement through his accomplishments with a global impact in the field of quality.

Studies

Anastasopoulos attended the 36th Elementary School and the 5th Gymnasium and Lyceum (high-school) in Exarheia, Athens, Greece. He received his undergraduate diploma from the Polytechnic School of University of Patras where from he graduated with a Mechanical Engineering degree. Then, he moved to Chicago, Illinois, US, for graduate studies, where he attended Northwestern University, and he received MS and PhD in Applied Mechanics. His research was focused on Fracture Mechanics specializing in understanding failure mechanisms in Brittle-Matrix Composite materials.

A major breakthroughs of his research was the elasticity solution he developed for the fiber-matrix-interface stress-distribution type problem. The problem itself consists of an isolated fiber in an infinite medium (matrix). A third phase (interphase) is assumed between the fiber and the matrix (see figure 1). The matrix is uniformly loaded in tension. Both the fiber, interphase and matrix are considered to be linear elastic and isotropic. The interface between the three materials is also assumed to be perfectly bonded.

Professional Activity

Since 2015, Anastasopoulos is associated with the International Accreditation Service (IAS) as Senior Vice President. IAS is a nonprofit, public-benefit corporation that has been providing accreditation services since 1975. IAS accredits a wide range of companies and organizations, worldwide, including governmental entities, commercial businesses, and professional associations.

Anastasopoulos is also the General Secretary of IPC, the International Personnel Certification Association. IPC was established in 1995, as a global association of Personnel Certification Bodies with the objective to represent and promote the interests of its members. Previously, he has also served as the Chairperson of IPC.

Anastasopoulos served as General Secretary of Communications of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (2007–2009) and as General Secretary of Industry of the Ministry of Development (2009) for the Hellenic Government under prime Minister Kostas Karamanlis.

From 2006 to 2007 he served at the Bonn-Germany based, Accreditation Panel of the United Nations Kyoto Protocol system UNFCCC/CDM. Under the Clean Development Mechanism, emission-reduction projects in developing countries can earn certified emission reduction credits. These saleable credits can be used by industrialized countries to meet a part of their emission reduction targets under the Kyoto Protocol.

As a member of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) technical committees, he has contributed in developing many international standards, including ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 17024 and ISO/IEC 17025. He also contributed to a series of technical committees such as ISO/TMBG, ASTM/E36, IPC, ISO/TC176 and ISO/CASCO. He is also participating in international organizations of Accreditation Bodies IAF and ILAC.

In addition to the above, he has also involved in the following professional activities:

• Chairman & CEO, STAREGISTER International Inc., 2012–2014
• Member of Executive Forum, Coleman Research Group, Inc., New York, USA, 2011–2014
• President and CEO, PARATUS Europe Ltd., Athens, Greece, 2011-1013
