Francis Kong, Jason Magbanua headline ‘The School for the Passionate, New Bold U 2020’

The Silicon Valley-based Singularity University inspired “New Bold University” is back with Philippine’s leading motivational speaker Francis Kong and most sought-after Filipino videographer Jason Magbanua headlining the more than 20 distinguished speakers for its 2020 Summit this coming January 27 – February 1 at GT-Toyota Asian Center Auditorium, UP Diliman.

Fresh from its successful inaugural event on July 2019, New Bold University (also known as New Bold U), dubbed as “The School for the Passionate” continues its mission to reimagine education with its a pop-Up ‘Life School’ designed to create transformative, immersive events that will help people achieve their fullest potential in the context of lifelong learning. It’s a school for people of ALL AGES for the evolving, exponential times.

Ralph Layco, 2019 Asia’s Most Outstanding Marketer, Serial Entrepreneur and New Bold U Founder, envisions changing the typical four-year college bubble into a one-week crash course every year. He said “Education is a lifelong pursuit. Why should it end in college? We go back to school one week every year and practice what we’ve learned the entire year.”

He added, “The current educational system doesn’t work anymore. We have abundance of information, from a quick Google search to a Youtube series that teaches coding. We don’t need to feed people what to learn, we need to make them intellectual curious that will empower them to learn more on their own. Instead of being stuck in four years of education, why not a week every year. Learning never stops, why should school? Students

300 slots were opened and participants will be intensively immersed in the fields of entrepreneurship, freelancing, e-commerce and social enterprises –leading to its goal to inspire participants to pursue their passions and rapidly turn their visions of their best life into reality.

New Bold U will bring 6 days of content focusing on creating ultimate life desired by the participants. The weeklong workshops will be packed with best practices and tools that will focus on helping them create a powerful vision that refines their goals, their definition of success, beyond the one-size-fits-all goals imposed by society.

“NBU’s vision is to develop thousands of people living their passions every year, happier and more equipped to solve global challenges we all are facing. If we awaken everyone to be themselves, they can’t help but be of service to others,” Layco explained. 

Since New Bold U has launched, it has connected hundreds of community of life-long learners, empowering them to live their unique passions and achieve their full potential.
