Appetite for Ambition
University is about pushing boundaries: of knowledge, of technology, of people. It is an engaging activity that requires ambition. You need planning, perseverance and intuition. Ambition is thinking out of the box and leaving the beaten track; it’s seizing opportunities and really going for it. At this event, the speakers will inspire with their own experiences and lessons learned. Come and hear about Einstein’s stubbornness, Da Vinci’s fantasy and Steve Jobs’ success.
