Multiplying Success through Education By teaching event design principles to students, Sarinya aims to multiply her impact and success, as each student who succeeds represents her own achievement. "That's why I'm doing this job, because,you know, if I work, I maybe have success, like ten times in the life, or 20, maybe 30, I don't know. But if I teach students in the Event Design Certificate Young Professionals Program (EDC-YP), almost 200. If they got success, I have 200 success." - Sarinya Sungktatavat In the DESIGN to CHANGE PODcast session at IMEX Frankfurt 2024, Sarinya Sungktatavat from Mahidol University College Thailand shared insights on the role of design in achieving event goals.
