Speakers of the conference TEDxKNU were young professionals, opinion leaders, inventors, businessmen, athletes and public figures. All of them shared their stories about how to change the world around you by small steps and to share ideas worth spreading.

As one of the speakers, Konstantin Bozhko, athlete and entrepreneur, co-founder and coach of Kyiv Marathon Running Club said: “Ideology of a healthy lifestyle and, in particular, jogging is extremely simple. I want to express the idea to all participants that running is a habit, like brushing your teeth or washing. As the ancients said – hurry slowly and remember that running is not the goal for today and tomorrow, running – it's for life”.

During the event on the official page of Piraeus Bank in the social network Facebook everyone could look through interesting speakers’ thoughts and the most interesting moments.
