Applications are open until July 1st. The event takes place on September 28th at ITQB NOVA.
Applications are now open for NOVA students interested in participating in TEDx NOVA 2023 and seizing the opportunity to share their ideas and experiences on the TEDx NOVA stage, in front of an audience composed of highly motivated students and alongside experts from various fields.
Applications must be submitted by July 1st. The event will take place on September 28th at the ITQB-NOVA campus in Oeiras.
“Into the Unknown” is the theme of this edition, aiming to motivate people to step out of their comfort zones and embrace risks in the pursuit of new opportunities. This entails embracing uncertainty and the challenges that come with venturing into unknown territories, both personally and professionally.
The organizers of this event are thus seeking speakers who can effectively demonstrate, through their own experiences, how growth and progress often require going beyond the familiar and accepting new challenges.
HOW TO APPLY
To apply, each student must submit on the website of TEDx NOVA the following items:
- a written summary of their speech, summarizing the ideas they intend to share
- a “motivational video”. The video is an opportunity to showcase communication skills, as well as discuss personal experiences and explain why they are a suitable choice for the event.
It is important to note that the event will be conducted in English, so fluency in the language will also be a requirement.
Selected students will proceed to the second phase, which involves an interview with the TEDx NOVA team members. The chosen student will have two months of preparation, with full support from the Speaker Department.
TEDx conferences bring together a diverse range of participants, including professionals, entrepreneurs, academics, and students. These events create an environment conducive to networking and collaboration, providing an opportunity to strengthen the bonds among the different faculties that make up our university.
