TEDxNTUA 2025 – SYNELIXIS

28/04/2025

TEDxNTUA 2025 | SYNELIXIS

A TEDx experience that will shape you.

TEDxNTUA 2025 is here.

Celebrating 10 years of presence, it returns stronger than ever to honor a decade full of Ideas that Change Everything and are Worth Spreading on Saturday, May 10th, 2025, at the Athens Conservatoire, with the theme [SYNELIXIS].

This anniversary event features inspiring talks, unique musical and dance performances, interactive workshops, and parallel happenings waiting to be explored.

The program includes outstanding personalities from Greece and abroad, covering a wide range of topics such as science, technology, art, society, journalism, personal stories, and much more.

If you want to be part of this unique experience, follow TEDxNTUA on social media, visit this year’s official website, or book your ticket here.

Central theme of this year’s event: SYNELIXIS

Or in other words, convolution.

The word “Synelixis” (Greek: Συνέλιξη) originates from mathematics and describes the transformation that one function imposes on another as it passes through it. In a broader philosophical sense, it represents dynamic interaction — the kind that gives birth to the new and evolves the old.

This year’s theme centers on the impact of interaction — whether it’s between ideas, experiences, people, or even fleeting moments. TEDxNTUA 2025 invites you to reflect: What shapes us? How do we transform through our interactions? What is born when two worlds converge?

“Converge. Connect. Evolve.”

10 Years of TEDxNTUA

Since 2015, TEDxNTUA has brought forward countless impactful ideas and personalities, cultivating a community driven by meaningful dialogue and innovation. This year’s event marks a decade of inspiration, while also setting the tone for what’s to come.

TEDxNTUA 2025 will once again take place at the Athens Conservatoire, a historic venue known for its distinctive architecture and aesthetics — perfectly complementing the spirit of the event. Designed by the renowned architect and former NTUA professor Ioannis Despotopoulos in Bauhaus style, the building harmoniously merges the past with the present — just like this year’s theme.

We invite you to experience the one-of-a-kind atmosphere of TEDxNTUA up close, as we celebrate its 10-year anniversary. A day full of ideas, images, encounters, and emotions that will stay with you long after.

Joint Statement of the European University Alliance EULiST – European University on the Situation at Harvard University

25/04/2025

As representatives of the Governing Board of the European University Alliance EULiST – European University, we express our concern regarding the current developments surrounding Harvard University. We stand in full support of Harvard’s governance in its efforts to defend the independence of academia and academic freedom in the face of political pressure linked to financial restrictions imposed by the federal government of the United States.

Universities, whether public or private, are essential bearers of democratic values, manifested above all in free thought, open inquiry, and autonomous governance. Critical dialogue and diversity of opinion are natural and necessary principles of academic life. We therefore view political interference in academia — including through economic constraints — as a violation of these foundational principles.

International cooperation is an essential functional principle of the university environment. Therefore, with this statement, we express our solidarity with the governance of Harvard University and its entire academic community in rejecting proposals whose adoption would violate the principles on which universities have historically been built.

On behalf of EULiST – European Universities and by decision of the Alliance Board, composed of the rectors and presidents of ten European universities, the Chair of the Management Board, and the Chair of the Student Board – LUH Hannover, TUW Vienna, STU Bratislava, BUT Brno, URJC Madrid, NTUA Athens, UnivAQ Aquila, IMT Paris, JU Jönköpping, LUT Lappeenranta-Lahti.

EULiST General Assembly 2025 at UnivAQ in L’ Aquila

14/04/2025

The National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) was successfully represented at the annual EULiST General Assembly 2025 hosted by the University of L’ Aquila (UnivAQ) from March 31 to April 2, 2025, in the historic “Luigi Zordan” Congress Centre at the monastery of St. Basil, in the heart of L’ Aquila, Italy.

The event welcomed over 150 participants from the 10 partner universities. Academic leaders, including rectors, presidents, and vice-rectors, as well as professors, researchers, administrative staff, students, and other representatives from EULiST partner universities convened for this annual gathering to reflect on achievements to date and to define the next strategic steps.

The Greek delegation from National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) was led by Prof. Emmanouel (Manos) Varvarigos, as Vice Rector for Research, Innovation and Outreach and Rector’s representative at the EULiST Governing Board; and Prof. Athanasios Zisis, as Vice Rector of Academic Affairs and Lifelong Education and co-chair of the EULiST Management Board. The event was also attended by the two scientific coordinators of EULiST at NTUA, Prof. Emer. Katerina Adam and Prof. Sotirios Karellas, Leader of EULiST WP4 “Research and Innovation”; the EULiST local coordinator Antonia Lampropoulou; Prof. Efi Dimopoulou, Leader of Task Group 2.1 “Digital Campus Infrastructure”; Prof. Ioanna Roussaki, co-leader of Task Group 3.3 “Artificial Intelligence Tools”; Prof. Angelos Markopoulos, Task Group 4.1 “Joint Research and Innovation Strategy” member; Ass. Prof. Georgios Chatzistelios, Task Group 3.4 “Life-Long Learning Practices” member; and two students, Konstantina – Maria Giannakopoulou, and Georgia Tritsini, as EULiST Student Board members.

The main topics discussed during the three-day General Assembly included:

Strategies for student and staff mobility in EULiST
Sustainable EULiST Campuses
STEM Education for Competitiveness
EULiST Digital Campus
EULiST Internship Platform
Internal and external communication in EULiST
Managing the European University Alliances – EU Challenges
European Degree and Label
EULiST Quality Assurance System
Upcoming events: EULiST Global Conference and Student Conference

Throughout the Assembly, a series of parallel meetings took place, including sessions of the Governing Board, Management Board, Student Board, Coordination Office, and the Project Steering Committee. On the final day, several parallel WP/TG meetings were also held. In particular, WP2, WP3, WP4, TG1.3, and TG1.4 met to assess the current progress of their respective activities and to collaboratively outline the roadmap for the upcoming months.

One of the most significant moments of the event was the inauguration of the 2024/25 academic year at the University of L’Aquila (UnivAQ). This occasion served as a meaningful gathering of Italian universities, represented by guest rectors, alongside delegates from all EULiST partner institutions— underscoring the shared commitment of the EULiST member universities to fostering a strong and interconnected academic community.

Furthermore, the General Assembly hosted the first session in a new series of webinars dedicated to the professional development of academic staff, an initiative promoted within the EULiST Alliance. Coordinated by Task Group 3.2 “Innovative Teaching and Learning Methodologies”, the series aims to provide academic staff with innovative tools and advanced strategies to enhance teaching and learning. The inaugural webinar, titled “Challenge-based Learning: An Active Pedagogy in Higher Education,” was led by Prof. Claudia Migliaccio of the Institut Mines-Télécom (IMT), Paris.

The EULiST General Assembly 2025 marked another important milestone in the Alliance’s journey, reinforcing the collective efforts of its member universities toward shaping an inclusive, innovative, and future-oriented European Higher Education Area.
