Tonight at #Gen_E 2024 we celebrate Euroclear 10-Year Partnership Anniversary to mark our joint work together to empower the next generation of Europeans. The CEO of Euroclear Group, Valérie Urbain, shared some inspiring words that resonate deeply at #Gen_E, as she shared three advices to aspiring entrepreneurs: 🔹Dream Big: Set audacious goals. The world needs bold visionaries who dare to dream beyond the ordinary. 🔹Learn from Failures: Don’t fear mistakes; embrace them. Each failure is a stepping stone toward success. Learn, iterate, and grow. 🔹Lifelong Learning: Never stop learning. Seek out opportunities to expand your knowledge, whether through formal education or real-world experiences. Gen-Ers will bring home more than just an experience!
