+685
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Alter Ego Media is a dominant media conglomerate in Greece with massive verifiable reach and traction, including ownership of the top TV channel (MEGA) and major newspapers. While the real-world utility and audience reach are exceptional, the submission itself is extremely sparse, lacking details on specific technical innovations or the 'Media Tech' transformation claimed. The score reflects the undeniable scale and market presence of the entity (placing it in the 400-700+ range), but is dampened by the lack of specific project details and low response quality.
