• Chenxuan Pan

  To Catch And to Release.

  It's me that calls myself back to myself again and again, no matter how many times I am unmade and remade by the immutable entropy change, or by the ceaseless tides of the crowded. Life never fades away in vastness, because the person who holds the baby's breath never needs a deity.

• Ding Lou

  Riane Disneyland or Beach Cleanup?

  When one has a passion in sustainability, or social responsibility in general, they are always initially alone. But with their effort, more people will join. Newcomers become passionate, and attract more people, forming a positive cycle.

• Hongju Han

  Are You Studying for a Disappearing Major?

  Jobs vanish in a blink. Dare to cross and link. Change your brain, or lose the game.

• Jiayang Liou

  Superhero

  The speech introduces sensors as invisible “tiny superheroes” that quietly make our world safer and smarter. Using different examples in daily life to show their superpower. Then the speaker asks the audience to think deeper about the true superhero.

• Kejiang Cai

  Artificial Intelligence

  We are living in the age of AI—it's in our phones, our laptops, and the apps we use every day. But as it integrates deeper into our lives, I find myself asking: do we truly know how to use it, and are we certain it won't harm us? Today, I want to share how we can move forward—not just with smarter AI, but with safer and more responsible technology for all.

• Ruotong Liu

  The Shadow

  Afraid of losing face? We all hide parts of ourselves to fit in. But, what if your greatest growth lies in the shadows you avoid? This talk explores how facing imperfection unlocks true courage, and why the path to becoming whole begins where comfort ends.

• Shangjun Lin

  Teen-tech

  The speech is about teen-tech, tech tools for teenagers. It talks about how tech makes learning easier—like online group work or online classes. It also talks about how tech helps connect teens with each other. And it explains how tech boosts creativity and innovation.

• Xinyu Zhou

  Procrastination:Why We Always Promise to “Start Tomorrow”.

  Stop waiting for the "right time". The right time is now. Brief Introduction: How many of you have ever delayed a task, only to find the stress of procrastinating was worse than the task itself? In this speech, we'll embark on a journey into the heart of procrastination, to understand its roots and discover how we can make a new start.

• Yurun Gong

  To Fall, to Rise: Lessons from the Saddle.

  On the path of equestrianism, I learned the most important lesson in life: The visible obstacles and the invisible challenges of life are all taught to me by the sound of the horse's hooves—true success does not lie in never falling down, but in always having the determination to stand up again. The growth on horseback, without applause, leaves a mark for a lifetime.

• Zhiling Liang

  Growing with Every Try.

  Be a skill squirrel: try new things, learn with joy, and shine as YOU! Brief Introduction: Hi! I'm Niangao, and I love to learn new things—just like a busy squirrel collecting nuts! My favorite "nuts" are speaking French and ice skating. Every time I try something, whether I succeed or stumble, it becomes a part of my own treasure box. So this talk is about how each of us can gather our own special skills and share our one-of-a-kind stories.

• Zilin Liao

  Can Tech Power A Fair Future?

  Join me in rewriting the narrative: Where every charge fuels dreams, not despair. Brief Introduction: “1% battery” alerts for most of us, it’s a fleeting panic—a momentary inconvenience. But for 6-year-old Congolese children, that same beep signals something far darker. They’re not refreshing social media; they’re digging cobalt with bare hands, earning $2 a day to power my smartphone, your electric car, and the world’s digital dreams. But tech should lift humanity—never crush it.
