In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).

Ion Christian Bandalac

Intership

Hello! I'm Cristian, currently pursuing an IB program at Struer Statsgymnasium. My aspirations for the future revolve around becoming a part of a prominent financial institution, such as BlackRock. I gained valuable experience through an internship in the finance sector at J.P. Morgan. I am having the opportunity to present at this event, where I will share topics such as managing debt, effective investment strategies, identifying the most promising investment opportunities for the present year, and various ways for achieving financial independence. Additionally, I must admit I have quite a significant caffeine addiction.

Victor Valiente Calatrava

IB student

Hi, my name is Victor, and I'm from Spain. I recently started the IB system, which can be quite demanding. In my talk, I would like to discuss something that means a lot to me-resilience. Allow me to illustrate, in high school, I went through some tough times. I was stressed and hardly getting any sleep. But I found a way to bounce back and not only survive but do well. I'm excited to share my story with you because I believe resilience is a skill we can all benefit from in our lives.
