Presentation of the
TEDxESCPLondon event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, ESCP students from multiple students’ campuses and with diverse backgrounds founded the TED Talk Society in 2021.
Currently we are creating the first ever official TEDxESCPLondon event to give students of the university and people from outside the university access to thought leaders in their fields.
We are an interdisciplinary field including students from four different master programs, six different nationalities and one goal: Make people engaged in a discussion on the theme of Transformative Change.
"The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team."
