We’re excited to finally share something big with you: SBT SPEAK is here.
Think of SBT SPEAK as our own version of TED Talks, but built by and for the HT community. We wanted a place where bold ideas and real passion could take center stage—a place to hear from people who aren’t just talking about the future, but actually building it.
So, what exactly is SBT SPEAK? It stands for Sharing Perspectives, Expertise, Ambition, and Knowledge. It’s a fresh forum where students, professors, and industry leaders get up and share quick, powerful talks about what drives them. You’ll hear from students who are deep into research projects, faculty who are pushing the boundaries in their fields, and top industry folks who see the world changing in real time.
You’ll get everything from the latest advances in tech and entrepreneurship to honest takes on leadership, business, and personal growth. It’s not just a bunch of talks—it’s a chance to get inspired, to challenge how you see things, and maybe even to spark some of your own ideas.
Don’t just read about what’s next. Come listen to the people making it happen. SBT SPEAK is your ticket to fresh perspectives, real connections, and a community that’s all about aiming higher. Join us. Let’s get inspired together.
