Reset and start over

The number of times the average person tries to achieve a new goal before giving up, is less than one.

Initiative is intimidating, and failure even more so. Our secret ingredient to success? Reset and Start over. In other words, CTRL + ALT + DEL.

For the first edition of TEDxYouth@AvenorCollege, we brought in front of you some of the most successful Romanian individuals, that have gone through it. Subjects ranging from entrepreneurship, to technology, to sports, we cover it all.

Join us on November 5th, at Țăndărică theatre, and we’ll convince you to just do it.
