We support our neighbors! So we cordially invite you to join the inspiring event now November 15 at the Gdańsk University of Technology! Meet visionaries, innovators and passionate people who are changing the world – locally and globally. Here Curiosity meets knowledge, and questions become the beginning of new discoveries. The leitmotif of this year’s edition – “Who asks, does not err” – encourages us to look for answers, challenge patterns and look at the world from different perspectives.
Through inspiring lectures and hands-on workshops, we will discover together how courage to ask questions can lead to innovation, building bridges between people and better understanding the reality around us.
This year, the organizers have also prepared a unique artistic part, which will refer to the leitmotif and stimulate the imagination in an unconventional way. A dose of inspiration, emotions and reflections await you, which will remain in your memory for a long time.
The conference is organized by students of the Interfaculty Scientific Club of Project Management, who combine passion and professionalism, creating a space for sharing ideas and experiences.
