“Wrong Turns, Right Destinations: Embracing the unexpected path”
As we navigate through a world that seems to be constantly turning itself upside down, we are facing big changes, unexpected twists, and new challenges. Our global dynamics and daily routines have experienced an upside-down flip: habits, approaches, widespread beliefs have been impacted by this revolution. This isn’t just a time of challenges but also of great opportunities. We’re finding new ways to innovate and work together, aiming to create a future that’s inclusive and sustainable. Despite the uncertainty, this is a chance for growth and understanding for everyone.
This year’s conference will take place on the 17th of February, 2024 at ESMT Berlin. With the theme “UPSIDE DOWN: Uniting Voices to Empower Tomorrow” , we dive into a dynamic exploration of change, where thought leaders from various fields come together to dissect recent worldwide shifts, envision future transformations, and share personal narratives of triumph over adversity. At our fourth TEDxESMTBerlin event, we’re getting ready to explore all of this and even more.
So, get ready to be inspired, to think differently, and to see the world in a new light. “UPSIDE DOWN: Uniting Voices to Empower Tomorrow” is a call to come together, to share ideas, and to make a real difference. Join us to uncover actionable insights on embracing change, fostering resilience, and shaping a future where challenges fuel growth and progress.
