Theocharis Vlachopanagiotis is Co-founder and CEO of Rhoé. Within AntifragiCity, Rhoé plays a dual role: supporting the project horizontally across work packages while leading the development of the Sustainable Urban Mobility Antifragility (SUMA) platform.

This platform brings together the project’s insights into a practical, accessible tool designed to help cities analyse, anticipate, and respond more effectively to disruptions, turning complex data and research into real-world decision-making support.

“While current systems have been built on trying to avoid disruptions, we are embracing them and trying to build cities that can learn and become better and stronger through disruptions.”
