This is an announcement for the paper "The fixed point property in a Banach space isomorphic to $c_0$" by Costas Poulios. Abstract: We consider a Banach space, which comes naturally from c0 and it appears in the literature, and we prove that this space has the fixed point property for non-expansive mappings.
