Some people follow paths. Others build them. Born in Beirut and raised in Cyprus, Eddy Nassar has blended technology, music, and business into a career defined by one theme: the power of connection. A Management Information Systems graduate from the State University of New York (funding studies as a DJ), he began in 2001 as an IT Engineer at Columbia Shipmanagement—then took that curiosity to sea as an IT Officer aboard the Thomson Celebration—before returning to Cyprus to reimagine hospitality.
From 7 Seas at Columbia Plaza (where he brought world-class jazz to Limassol) to leading roles that reshaped the island’s nightlife and beach culture, Eddy’s trajectory includes Manager of 7 Seas, General Manager of Columbia Beach, and Managing Director of Columbia Restaurants, launching Columbia Pier and Columbia Sun and collecting multiple accolades along the way. His philosophy evolved from “If you build it, they will come” to “If you market it, they will come”—creating experiences with authenticity and clear narrative.
Seeing culture shift online, Eddy expanded from venues to digital influence. As President & CEO of WIBA Mediterranean, he hosted the World Influencer and Blogger Awards (2025) at Limassol’s Four Seasons, showcasing Cyprus as a serious stage for creators across Europe and the Middle East.
Co-founding MICA — the Mediterranean Influencers & Creators Association with Patrick Karam, Eddy built a hub where creators connect, learn, and collaborate. MICA’s mission is threefold: Empowerment (tools, training, workshops), Collaboration (brand-creator matchmaking), and Cultural Exchange (amplifying Mediterranean voices). Through monthly meetups in Limassol and beyond—on rooftops, at Columbia Beach, and inside buzzing creative hubs—MICA proves that influence isn’t about follower counts; it’s about authenticity and community.
Today, Eddy stands at the intersection of hospitality, entertainment, and digital culture—a visionary who builds platforms where people don’t just show up; they stay, connect, and create legacies together.
