Selling Greece to Disney Solves Europe’s Woes preview.bloomberg.com Disney’s decision to buy Greece has been credited to Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Inc. and Disney’s largest shareholder. In 2009, Jobs told Disney to “dream bigger,” setting into motion a deal that is generating a new series of Disney hit movies and product spin-offs, and transforming the theme-park industry. Already under construction are Space Mountain Olympus, the Pirates of the Aegean water theme park covering hundreds of nautical miles, the Little Mermaid Harpoon thrill ride, and “Trojan,” a multimedia adventure that the company reassured shareholders yesterday will not be adult-themed. Disney CEO Bob Iger has said his favorite idea to improve Greece’s margins is golf-themed cruises aboard three ships -- Aphrodite, Artemis and Athena -- which are scheduled for delivery in 2013 and will stop at many of the 1,400 private islands that Disney acquired in the deal. Experiences like these are expected to substantially increase the number of tourists beyond the 16 million who now visit Greece each year and plug a $45 billion annual revenue hole by wringing euros out of remote sea-locked acreage that had been thought to have no value.
