Thanks to the support of Loto-Québec, this program is free and will offer 250 places available upon prior registration and presentation of a valid student card.
Students will have access to testimonials and lessons from local entrepreneurs to whom they can also address their own questions, in a relaxed and open context on the Montreal and international artistic ecosystem.

They will also be invited to build bridges between the cultural field and other fields of activity: politics, human sciences, economics, philanthropy, urban planning, social field, education, health.

Currently in charge of customer experiences for FreshBooks, he will come to do a performance talk during which he will talk about his artistic practice and collaborations.
In the age of digital and reduced communication, made of SMS assisted by automatic corrections, eloquence has nevertheless returned in force: essential to convince, making a good pitch has become a priority in the minds of start-ups and companies.
TedxMontreal, an eloquence professional, will talk to us about this art and offer participants the opportunity to discuss this subject.
TedxMontreal's expertise will also allow everyone to develop essential skills that promote integration into the professional world. This will be an opportunity to discuss essential points related to eloquence in the professional world: how to present yourself during a job interview? How to speak on stage in front of an audience?
Do you want to increase your oratory potential for better professional integration? This workshop is for you!

The Open Lab is an innovative format covering many issues that link the artistic field and other fields of activity: politics, urban planning, social action, environment, education, health. Universities and companies are invited via a call for projects to come and question the students on site during the event in order to trigger discussions and debates and to encourage the search for solutions to the major current problems. It is also an opportunity for professionals and students to meet each other and gain a better understanding of the trends that are affecting and changing their sector of activity. The Open Lab thus offers a new way of networking and facilitates the professionalization of students; it is also an opportunity to make an impact and obtain a future job interview.
