Imen Maaroufi

Global catalyst

I am Imen Maaroufi, 24 years old. I come from Tunisia - a small country in North Africa. I have one motto in life: That everything is possible if and only if you believe strongly in it! Perseverance, hard work, belief and positive attitude can only help reaching the ultimate goal, no matter how hard it could be.

I am strongly motivated about the power of sharing learning and entrepreneurial skills. Besides the fact that I come from Marketing background, I am also inspired by Internet of Things, Big Data and Machine learning and I am so fascinated of how these technologies can revolutionize industry, education and different more fields.

In the couple last years I visited couple of different countries in Asia, MENA, Europe and North America, either for work, travel or different other purposes. I also lived with people from all over the world, and this only helped me coming out with two main observations: the first is that the world is small, and even though cultures may differ, human beings are still the same somehow and they can relate to many global visions and work towards a common goal for a better world (wisdom of a -differentiated- crowd), and the second is that the time is too short, so that we have to do more to be more and strive for excellence.
