AEK FC was founded in Athens in 1924, two years after the disaster of Asia Minor when a group of  Greek refugees originating from Constantinople decided to establish a club that would stand as a reminder of their homelands and the culture of three thousand years which turned to ashes. AEK takes pride from its roots, it honors them and carries them everywhere threw the double-headed eagle, inspired by the Byzantine Empire emblem.    AEK FC  has been over time an important contender for titles and success as has won 30 national titles (12 League Titles, 15 Greek Cups, 2 Super Cups and 1 League Cup) while consistently representing Greece in European Competitions.   Olympic Stadium of Athens is the permanent home of the team, where the fans enjoy excellent services.   AEK FC headquarters are located near the Olympic Stadium in a new luxury building, which serve with distinction all the administrative services of the Club.    The AEK FC Training Centre is located in Spata, Attica since 2010. It is the home of the First Team and the Academies and is recognised as one of the best in Greece.   Commercially wise, AEK FC has been a pioneer in a number of projects. Multinational corporations with dominant market shares have chosen AEK FC for sponsorship activations, as part of their strategic promotional mix, therefore verifying the Club's growing dynamics.   Moreover, AEK FC has an active “social responsibility” program which is targeted and oriented to both, the social and the football community.   Τhe Club is currently facing the most significant milestone in its modern history, as a new stadium will be built in its traditional home ground, at the suburb of Nea Filadelfeia. Such a project is expected to greatly uplift both the squad's dynamics as well as all commercial endeavours. “AEK is basically an idea and ideas do not die. They live, inspire, ravish and give joy” Ecumenical Patriarch Vartholomaios
