Summary
Kimon Spiliopoulos is a freelance Data Scientist and Management Consultant with three decades of consulting and data science experience, specializing in data/text mining, NLP, optimization and CRM-driven business process reengineering. He combines deep academic roots—a PhD in Operations Research and 17 years lecturing on quantitative methods—with hands-on delivery of analytical applications in R, Shiny, Python and Power BI for clients across Greece and Europe. His practice spans credit scoring, BI and CRM projects, EU proposal work and technical training, blending statistical rigor with pragmatic deployment. Comfortable across many programming languages and toolchains, he favors open-source workflows (R Tidyverse, Python, SpaCy/Gensim/NLTK) while also integrating commercial solutions. Notably, he translates advanced operations research and simulation methods into real-world decision support systems rather than purely theoretical work. Based in Greece, he offers a rare mix of academic depth, consulting breadth and practical implementation experience.
