Speakers

Liselotte Graas
During her time as a Mechanical Engineering student, Liselotte was part of the TU/e team developing the world's first energy-positive family car: Stella. They became world champion in Australia and all proceeded their careers in technology. Recently Liselotte created a documentary 'Driven by Challenges' in which she tracks down her peers, which led her to Taiwan, India, Boston, and Manchester. As product manager at Vanderlande she is responsible for the innovative portfolio of 'Robotics & Autonomous Vehicles'. Being 8 months pregnant, in this keynote she looks back on her journey so far and shares the 7 mindset learnings she would like to pass on to her daughter later in life.

Beatrix Bos
I am Beatrix and I just graduated last summer from the TU Eindhoven. I did a master's in Sustainable Energy Technology ⚡ which I enjoyed a lot! One month ago I started my first grown-up job at DIFFER, the Dutch Institute For Fundamental Energy Research as a project leader on a project about the future Dutch energy infrastructure. However, finding my first job was actually not how I envisioned it and was totally against my expectations. During Beyond I will tell you all about it! Looking forward to meeting you all there!

Lim Jeeyeon
I am a Sr. UX Designer at VodafoneZiggo involved in creating ever-better digital customer experience and seamless digital journeys for both Vodafone and Ziggo customers. I started my first career in the entertainment industry in South Korea and ended up working for one of the biggest entertainment companies in Asia. After realizing that my role wasn’t what I was looking for, I decided to let go of my 5 years of experience in the entertainment field and joined one of the travel tech startups. Fast forward, I am now in the telecommunication industry as a designer without any relevant academic background in Design. In my keynote, I would like to tell everyone that you can pave your own path regardless of the amount of experience.

Martina Bianco
I am Martina and I came to the Netherlands two years ago to start my master in Innovation Management. I graduated last September accomplishing exactly what i had in mind. However, the decision to come here, and my master, were not as straightforward as you might think. Curious to know how I steered my own path? Sign up for the event! Looking forward to meeting you all!

Naomie Amsing
My name is Naomie and I am a Master student Biomedical Engineering at the TU/e. During my studies, I noticed some things that needed to be improved in our university. I took it upon me to work on mostly wellbeing, social safety and inclusivity matters. In the meantime, I was also an adult in development and got to know myself really well through ups and downs. I learned who I am, who I want to be, and how I can be myself in rough environments while also getting stuff done. During my talk, I will share how I learned to show vulnerability, and how that impacted my life and my work for the student community.
