- 10:53Usando el futuro como herramienta para tu empleabilidad | Dionís Guzmán | TEDxEAEBusinessSchoolEn un presente altamente cambiante nuestra empleabilidad presente y futura no puede limitarse meramente a la adaptación constante de las nuevas tecnologías como IA o blockchain por mencionar algunas. El precio que pagamos por estar a la última en tecnología es precisamente llegar el último. Usar el futuro como herramienta implica únicamente no invertir tiempo y recursos en el aprendizaje de nuevas competencias demandadas en el mercado laboral sino anticiparse a los futuros requisitos profesionales desarrollando así de forma proactiva las capacidades necesarias de manera intencional y en base a unos objetivos de empleabilidad definidos." Con casi dos décadas de experiencia en el campo de la transformación digital, he ayudado a innumerables organizaciones del IBEX 35 a mejorar su preparación para alcanzar el éxito y prosperar en la economía del siglo XXI. Conjuntamente con Alfons Cornella dirijo desde el año pasado EDGERS, la primera consultora de foresight y diseño de futuros en habla hispana en la que tenemos como principal objetivo ayudar a las organizaciones a aprender a usar el futuro como herramienta tanto en España como en Latinoamérica.Mi objetivo es apoyar a empresas e individuos que provienen de entornos tradicionales, frente a los desafíos sin precedentes de hoy en día, como el cambio constante o la extrema volatilidad.

- 12:11La soledad en palabras: lo necesario de lo inevitable | Isabella Buitrago Vanegas | TEDxLCB Youthnos invita a replantear nuestra percepción negativa de la soledad. A través de un enfoque que combina poesía, filosofía y reflexión personal y explora cómo esta experiencia universal puede convertirse en una poderosa herramienta de creatividad y autodescubrimiento. A lo largo de mi trayecto también he sido reconocida por mi destreza deportiva y habilidades en esta área. Este año (2024) obtuve mi certificado internacional IELTS con el nivel C1 y obtuve una beca merito por el 30% del valor de la matricula en la Universidad del Rosario, en la cual iniciaré con mi carrera de Psicología en enero del 2025, y en el segundo semestre comenzaré con un doble programa en Marketing y Negocios digitales. En cuanto a mis habilidades académicas, me destaco en las áreas de ciencias, humanidades e idiomas, y en cuanto a las actividades extracurriculares, me gustan mucho los deportes, como el futbol y el tenis, además de esto, también me gusta la escritura, la lectura, y el dibujo. En mis áreas de interés se podría destacar el área deportiva y el área social. Por último, entre mis proyectos personales en el ámbito académico es poder iniciar y terminar mis dos carreras con un buen promedio y logros. Además, con Psicología tengo planeado hacer una doble titulación en la universidad de Bolonia, Italia. A nivel profesional todavía no tengo muy claro a que quiero llegar, pero espero sea algo no solo con un propósito personal, pero también social.

- 9:05Musical Performance | Jet Black Diamonds | TEDxLjubljanaOriginating from the Vipava Valley, the band Jet Black Diamonds is made up of five young men. They are united by their youthful energy and love for writing original music. Free from the constraints of musical styles, they combine different musical genres, but most often, as they say, they are drawn to modern variants of rock 'n' roll. In 2021, they first made waves with their debut single, “Retro Anorak”. After local success, the song reached a wider Slovenian audience and, as the Song of the Week in August, became one of the most played songs on the national radio station Val 202. A few months later, the Jet Black Diamonds dominated the student band competition Šourok 2021 and released a new single, “Še zadnjič”, followed by a nomination for the Slovenian Music Award “Zlata piščal” for Best New Artist. In 2022, they released their first EP, “Večvredne romance”. From the album, three songs became Songs of the Week. In April 2024, they released their first LP, “Sladki problemi” which they presented at the sold-out Kino Šiška, Ljubljana’s urban cultural centre. They believe this album will help them land among the most influential Slovenian music artists. On the TEDxLjubljana stage they performed their original songs “Retro anorak” and “4 od 10”.
