TEDxEcoleDesPonts - Scaffolding
The first edition of TEDxEcoleDesPonts will be held on Thursday, May 25, 2023!
The event, organized at École nationale des ponts et chaussées, will consist of an evening where a dozen speakers will take turns on stage for conferences on the theme of Scaffolding. This will invite the audience to reflect on the ways in which we build our world, our society, our relationships and ourselves.
Science, travel, art or personal development: this theme will be approached from different angles in order to give the most complete vision possible. More than a seminar, it will be a moment of conviviality and meetings.
The objective is both to disseminate the ideas born at the School and carried by its teachers, students, alumni or researchers on a global scale, but also to enrich them with ideas from speakers from different fields, who can help us build the worlds of tomorrow.
►Programme: conferences, cocktail, original activities and surprises to experience a true TEDx event!
► Registration will open on May 17th, at 8PM (limited to 100 participants)
