The event was an opportunity to bridge the worlds of academia and business, showing how the values gained at university translate into real professional experience. In his speech, Piotr Ignaszak emphasized the importance of dreams, humility, and responsible leadership as the pillars of career and personal development.

• Returning to my alma mater - this time not as a student but as an invited speaker - had a deeply personal meaning for me. There are messages worth hearing before we get caught up in everyday life. And if even one person in that audience looked at their future with greater courage after that evening, I know it was worth it,” wrote Piotr Ignaszak, reflecting on his address during the ceremony.
