Theme: Connecting the Dots

Our 2025 TEDx EDHEC Business School event explores the profound idea of "Connecting the Dots."
Steve Jobs’ timeless insight - “You cannot connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards”—challenges us to embrace uncertainty, trust our journey, and find meaning in the unexpected twists of life.

This year, we invite visionaries, changemakers, and storytellers to share their unique perspectives on how seemingly unrelated moments, decisions, and experiences ultimately shape our futures. Through thought-provoking talks and inspiring stories, our speakers will illuminate how hindsight, resilience, and trust in the unknown can lead to groundbreaking innovation and personal transformation.

- Sabrina Brouillard: Founder of "Impacte Ton devenir" and professional coach ICF (International Coaching Federation) for young adults and atypical leaders.
- Frédéric Balussaud: Personal Trainer & Holistic Health Coach.
- Erik Grab: Ex strategic Anticipation & innovation Vice-President for the Michelin Group and Founder of Movin'On and President of IES ( Innovation in Eco-System Consulting Company).
- Louise Lefebvre: World Champion in 1KM Bipalm Open Water Race.
- Pierre Faury: Creator of Digital Content around the Art of Oratory
- Franck Nassiri: Professor of Strategy & Trainer in Corporate Strategy

Join us for a day of insightful discussions, bold ideas, and powerful connections as we navigate the intricate web of experiences that define our lives. How will you connect your dots?
