Jiří Šteg
I would like to participate in the DIEM25 attempt to rationalize and strengthen democracy in the EU and focus mainly on the adaptation and application of the principles of the Manifesto and related documents to Czech conditions, promoting them in the political and public space. Born in 1955, graduate of the University of Economics, macroeconomist. I worked for many years in the field of international transport and from 1987 to 1992 I worked at the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Sofia. Subsequently, I worked on a number of projects in Bulgaria, Albania, Uzbekistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and in France. For several years I taught EU issues and globalization at the College of International and Public Relations Prague. Since 2011 I have been intensively involved in civic activism, as a member and for some time a spokesperson for ProAlt, later I became intensively involved in the European and Czech movement against the TTIP and CETA agreements. Since 2014, I have been working as an advisor to an MEP, and since 2018 I have been a member of the Prime Minister's advisory circle. I am a member of the European association TUREC (Trade Union Related Economists). Sometimes I publish and appear in the media on topics from the border of economics and political science.
Antonín Hořčica
I am 61, I live in České Budějovice. I have a degree of food chemistry and bachelor's degree in economics. I work as a system manager for an international company. I am not a member of any political party. In the 80s, I was a member of the communist party, then I did not engage politically. 2010, I entered the anti-neoliberal movement ProAlt. 2013, I actively opposed the racist anti-Roma marches in České Budějovice. Since 2016, I have been a member of the DiEM25 movement. The DiEM25 ideas mean for me the vision of solidarity and tolerant Europe, in contrast to the current neo-liberal and nationalistic and xenophobic discourse.
Christos Piniatides
I was born on the island of Crete in Greece and then later studied transport and product design in the UK's Midlands, to my disillusionment. (I now believe, because of Yanis, that the best designers, marketers etc work in the industry whereas the best mathematicians, philosophers, chemists, linguists etc teach in Universities.) Then I returned to Greece during the crisis and some years later relocated to China to work in a mid-tier city as a designer in the transport sector. In 2016 I returned to Europe and pursued a personal project/startup developing a user-upgradeable laptop and spending time on DiEM25.
Jan Májíček
I see Diem25 in Czech Republic as an organization with progressive attitude towards Europe and open to discuss radical change on our continent and worldwide. I am a long-term activist, member of Socialistická Solidarita, PhD. candidate at Charles University in Prague.

Michael Beluský
DiEM25 is my first political experience. I was snapped out of my slumber by the wave of nationalism currently corrupting Europe and the inability of our politicians to look forward. I’m convinced, that unless we start to organize ourselves across the borders, we will be swallowed by the Global Capitalism. From unity, strength!
