We will discuss topics related to business, psychology and education. Through the experiences of the invited speakers, we want to show participants that it is sometimes worth stopping to think about ourselves, to consider what we can do better, differently. Understand what means and learn to say enough. Through this event, we create a space where participants will be able to look around and see how many opportunities and challenges the world of today presents us with.
