THE JOURNEY
Lefteris Voutsas - Founder of UpperComms
Lefteris Voutsas is a Communications Consultant specialising in strategic messaging and public image management. With an academic background in Political Science (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki), a Master’s degree in Political Communication in the Digital Era (University of Athens), and a recent specialization in Brand Building and Influencing Behaviour from the University of Amsterdam, he has built a career at the intersection of politics, branding, and audience engagement.
He began his professional journey over a decade ago in journalism, working as a writer, editor, and executive producer. Through his collaborations with leading Greek media such as Mega TV, Skai TV, Open TV, and Down Town Magazine, he cultivated a deep understanding of narrative architecture, public discourse, and media impact. This period shaped his approach to content strategy, enabling him to craft stories that resonate, inform, and move audiences.
Expanding his focus beyond traditional media, Lefteris transitioned into the field of strategic communications, bringing journalistic clarity and narrative sharpness into political and brand-oriented environments. He later served as a Scientific Associate at the Hellenic Parliament, where he acted as a Communications Advisor. In this role, he designed and implemented comprehensive communication plans aimed at public visibility, stakeholder outreach, and crisis navigation, combining institutional understanding with creative foresight.
Previously, Lefteris worked as a Communications Consultant at Panik Entertainment Group, where he supported narrative strategy, content consulting, and visibility planning for a diverse roster of public figures, artists, and creators. His consulting bridged the worlds of entertainment and public affairs, offering clients a rare blend of political insight, media literacy, and cultural intuition.
Today, this diverse expertise culminates in the founding of UpperComms, a specialized communications consultancy. Dedicated to crafting the strategic positioning of politicians, public figures, and brands, UpperComms represents the perfect synthesis of his career. By merging his extensive hands-on experience in major media networks with a rigorous academic foundation, the agency delivers comprehensive, high-stakes narrative strategies in the modern digital landscape.
