Edit request: update for currency and accuracy (June 2026)
I have a conflict of interest with this subject and am not editing the article directly, per WP:COIEDIT. Requesting the following sourced changes. The article is materially out of date (it lists ANT1 as the network for Dragons' Den when the show moved to SKAI, names a superseded production company, and omits the subject's principal business activity).
1. Lead sentence. Change the opening from "is a Greek TV host, producer and entrepreneur" to:
- Sakis Tanimanidis (Greek: Σάκης Τανιμανίδης; born 30 April 1981) is a Greek entrepreneur, television host and producer.
Rationale: the body now documents substantial entrepreneurial activity (below); the reordering reflects the current balance of coverage.
2. Add to the business/entrepreneurship section:
- Tanimanidis is co-founder, with Miltos Kambourides, of Paradox Museum, a chain of immersive-experience attractions launched in 2022. As of 2026 the brand operates in 16 cities across 13 countries and has received more than 10 million visitors, with a stated target of 55 locations by 2030. The business uses a franchise-led expansion model.

3. Add:
- In 2026 Tanimanidis and his wife Christina Bompa co-founded the BeWell Festival, a fitness and wellness event held at the OAKA complex in Athens, which organisers describe as the largest of its kind in Europe. The 2026 edition drew over 20,000 attendees.

4. Correction (Dragons' Den network). The article states Dragons' Den Greece airs on ANT1. It premiered on ANT1 in 2023 and moved to SKAI for its fourth season in 2026. Requesting:
- Dragons' Den Greece, the Greek adaptation of the Dragons' Den / Shark Tank format, premiered on ANT1 in January 2023 with Tanimanidis as host. In 2026 the show moved to SKAI for its fourth season.

5. Correction (production company). The article names "Baby Blue Project" as the subject's production company. The company behind Dragons' Den is now BetterKnown Entertainment. Requesting the production-company reference be updated to BetterKnown Entertainment.
