How I became an IGNITER - cont’d

By Inigo Lopez, CEO – BiCortex Languages & Translations

without hesitation. Everything was going well, until I got to the first slide that spoke about Ukraine. Then my mind went blank. I didn’t remember anything about my speech. Nothing. Zilch. Silence. Hundreds of people in the room. More silence. It felt as if that silence went on for hours, but it was probably about 10 seconds. Finally, I started to speak again, even if it included things that were not part of my original speech. Eventually, I managed to get back to my speech and finish the presentation.

If you managed to read till here without getting bored, you are probably now eager to go back to your EuRA emails to watch the session. You must be curious to see me in a shaky situation. I will make your life easier. You can watch the entire session here (and if you smiled at this paragraph, writing this article was worth it to me).

All the Igniters are there. I recommend you watch the whole video, not just my tenseconds-of-silence part.

At Bicortex, we didn’t stop supporting Ukrainians when my trip came to an end. We provide free online Spanish lessons for Ukrainian refugees. We’ve been doing this since April 2022, and we have taught more than 700 hours so far. At the moment, we are a little bit desperate to get some funds to continue this project, as the cost is quite high of a company of our size.
