About us
There are two Ambassadors; one responsible for BEST (Giorgos) and one for ESTIEM (Julian).
The main responsibility of the Ambassadors is to represent EESTEC to other NGOs and external parties in order to ensure knowledge exchange & the connection between the NGOs, as well as the Teams & Projects. With the knowledge we share with NGOs, as well as conveying valuable assets and information to EESTEC, we are working on creating long-lasting and beneficial relations.
Summary of this mandate

More Information in our Spring Congress 2022 Presentation and our Share Drive
Biggest achievement
NGOs connection project: In order to ensure the best possible results and make the process easier for every side, a new method was introduced through the communication between Ambassadors and our International Teams and projects, starting with the stages of needs assessment, leading to the stage of contact with the other NGOs. By combining the known ones into a structured process we seek more efficient communication. It is a fact that every year, there were misunderstandings, delays and an unclear process for the communication between Ambassadors & International Teams and Projects. Setting a structured way of communication, dividing it into the known stages is a solution that we came up with, trying to ensure clear and transparent communication, a well-constructed process and the expected outcomes.

The goal of the Design Team is to ensure a consistent visual identity of the Association, to educate all members of EESTEC on the academic aspect of design, to provide creative design solutions for the needs of the Association and to maintain a friendly, productive and collaborative environment amongst the Team’s members. The Team was structured as one large team, with all members being able to apply to work on any task/project available at a given time. We created smaller sub-teams (2-8 members) for larger tasks and projects, like logos, websites, videos etc, as well as for the Design Academies. These project/ task-based subteams were monitored by one of the Design Team Coordinators, depending on the nature of the task/project. Web design and video-related projects and Design Academies were monitored by the Coordinators for Web Design and Video Technologies respectively, the Design Academy for Illustrator by the Coordinator for Education and the more general tasks or projects by the Coordinator for Workflow and the Team Leader.
Summary of the mandate
For EESTEC in general we have organized three Design Academies - Design Academy Illustrator, Design Academy Web Design and Design Academy Video, organized the 8th Design Sprint, in collaboration with LC Eskisehir and the Board of the Association, created a draft logo of EESTEC, as part of the 8th Design Sprint participants’ projects, initiated a Design Packages for Branches project, in order to supplement branches which have weaker design departments with the necessary promotional and other materials (social media posts, a website template, t-shirts and so on), We collaborated with multiple Teams (IT Team, Training Team, PR Team, HEAT, CR Team ), Projects (Publications Project, Legal Advisory Project) and BAs (Ambassadors, Alumni Managers), as well as the Board of the Association. Some examples of larger collaborations are: The eestec.net project in collaboration with the IT Team. We have fully completed the public part of the website and the internal part is almost completed as well. The second Publication, The creation of a potential Ambassadors logo, The Ambassadors’ Video Reports. For the Team Members, we tried to maintain consistent communication and connection with them, through different communication channels, meetings, working sessions and team bonding events. We organized multiple educational sessions for the members on various design-related topics, as well as encouraged feedback culture. We also worked on establishing a more collaborative environment, through various smaller and larger team-based projects.
Biggest achievement
The 8th Design Sprint and the three Design Academies, eestec.net, Ambassadors Video Reports, the second Publication.
8th Design Sprint
LC Eskisehir - 28.2-5.3.2022 - 15 participants
The goal of the event
Design Sprint is a design-oriented Operational Event. It aims to educate EESTECers on important design-related topics and tools, challenge their creativity and encourage teamwork and idea-sharing in order to achieve a common goal.
It gives the participants the opportunity to understand the importance of design and how to take advantage of the information provided during sessions in order to contribute to the visual identity of the Association, on both the local and international level.
What happened
The impressions of the event are overall very positive. The sessions for the event were held by facilitators from the Design Team board. Some of them were in hybrid format, which had shown to be the most difficult ones to structure well.
The participants of the event were motivated and engaged throughout the whole event, both during the sessions and while working and giving feedback on their project. Friendships were made, with many of them joining the Design Team after the event concluded.
As for LC Eskisehir, they handled all the logistics amazingly. The food and accommodation were great. Each evening was planned out with activities and everyone had a lot of fun. We did have some unexpected setbacks during the event from both sides, mostly related to schedule rearrangements, but they were all handled as soon as possible through joint efforts. LC Eskisehir had been a lovely host and we are extremely happy with this collaboration.
Overall, as the Design Team board, we can say that this event maintained its legacy as one of the most creative and engaging ones our Association has to offer and are glad we had the opportunity to be a part of it.

Summary of the mandate
This year, the EESTech Challenge Project had Machine Learning Applications as the topic of the competition. After initially having 15 applications for Local Round Organisers, 12 Local Rounds happened in branches all over Europe. The Final Round was hosted by LC Milan and was the first financially sustainable live Final Round after 2019. Throughout the year, the EESTech Challenge board worked on documenting processes to pass on to the next mandates, while also being creative and working on their ideas. A data driven approach was established for coming up with the topic of the year. The Academic Team worked on creating an improved Academic guide, establishing a mentoring procedure for the branches called “”Academic Assistance”” and a new Academic event, that sadly had to be cancelled. The Ambassadors Team was constantly helping the branches and making the communication between them and the international level more efficient. The Public Relations Team utilized their creativity to the fullest and were constantly coming up with ideas to enrich the social media of the Project. The Designer created a beautiful visual identity for the Project and was always ready to assist the branches, most significantly by providing them with editable templates for everything that came up.

Biggest Achievement
The biggest achievement of PR Team is that we managed to be united during the mandate. We all faced out some periods of demotivation but we reminded to each other why we applied for our positions and we respected the needs of each others. In general, we worked as a TEAM.
Summary of the mandate
During this mandate, we uploaded more than 30 posts and several stories in EESTEC’s social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), we gathered all the BPP violations of the branches and we organized branding sessions for them. Not to mention that we collaborated with other teams and projects regarding their needs (updating their branding guides, promoting external partners in our social media etc) and we researched other trends and created advertisements. One of the highlights of PR Team was that we organized the 4th Brand.Comm in Patras in which many sessions on PR, Branding and CR were delivered to the participants but we also delivered some of them to our PR Team members. Last but not least, in order to integrate the new members of the winter call, we implemented for the first time the mentorship system inside the team.
4th Brand.Comm
LC Patras - 2-8.04.2022 - 13 participants
The goal of the event
The purpose of Brand.Comm is to educate people who are active in decision-making positions in their branch on the connection between PR, CR, and Branding, as well as advanced techniques of those. By the end of the event, the participants will not only have acquired the knowledge, but will also be able to share it with their branches.
What happened
All the participants were so satisfied with sessions but at the same time with the quality of the event(food, accomodation, fun activities). We didn’t accept any important complaint, only that the schedule was full. In general, Brand.Comm left a good impact to both participants and facilitators and now there are many motivated people for positions relevant to PR.

About us
The Grants International Project has a great potential to provide EESTEC with additional funds and give EESTECers opportunities when fulfilling the grants.

The Project focuses on looking for grants the Association could apply for (either as EESTEC Zurich or as a set of branches), but also on raising awareness about grants and educating branches about the process of applying for grants.

About us
The New Technological Project was launched last mandate with the aim of improving the technological aspect of EESTEC. This is suposed to be achieved by creating a long-term technical challenge, bringing technical minds together and bonding engineers, ending in a final-round-like EESTEC event, similar to the EESTech Challenge.
This New Technological Project can become a great source of inspiration to EESTECers and engineers, as well as a stable source of income for the Association. Also, it will cover EECS aspects that are currently not covered by the other Teams and Projects.
