✨ In today’s academic and professional world, ✨ In today’s academic and professional world, personal branding is a powerful tool for researchers looking to amplify their work, forge meaningful connections, and unlock new opportunities. To support the academic community, EU-CONEXUS recently hosted personal branding workshop led by @dominyka.venciute , founder of @personacognita . These sessions were offered to postgraduate students, researchers, and lecturers from EU-CONEXUS partner universities. 🤓 During sessions, the participants learned practical strategies aimed at creative development and positioning of their personal brands on platforms like LinkedIn, Instagram, and X. Through storytelling techniques and real-world examples, they also explored how to build trust and foster authentic, professional connections online.🤝🌐 As one participant shared: “It was a truly enriching experience. A highlight for me was seeing my own LinkedIn posts showcased as a best practice example—something neither of us anticipated! It reaffirmed that thoughtfully sharing our research can resonate far beyond our immediate networks.” EU-CONEXUS is committed to empowering the academic community with impactful training and opportunities to grow. ✊ Stay tuned for more initiatives designed to help you connect, share, and create! 🫶 #euconexus #europeanuniversities #personaltraining #personalbranding #workshop

Guided by @vilius_skarbalius , a young professor and researcher in physics, they participated in a practical session on light and visited five interdisciplinary laboratories: marine biology, physiology, robotics, engineering, and physics. This immersive experience in a cutting-edge scientific environment inspired the students and offered valuable insights for their academic futures. 🔬✨ 📅 This collaboration will continue in March 2025, when the Lithuanian counterparts will visit the Surgères high school and @univlarochelle , further strengthening the educational and cultural ties between the two institutions. Congratulations to the teachers and everyone involved in this project for embodying the values of exchange and European cooperation ! 🔗 If you wish to learn more about our School Contest, follow the link on Instagram bio. #EUCONEXUS #SchoolContest #ThinkGreenCreateSmart #EuropeanPartnership #Mobility #europeanuniversities
