Rethink — Relearn — Reinvent

What is ReThink?

A student organisation at VinUni since 2022 — where a familiar problem gets looked at from several angles, and the team behind TEDx VinUniversity every year.

ReThink is a student organisation at VinUni, running since 2022. We build spaces where young people can look at a familiar problem from several angles, and carry those perspectives to the people who need to hear them.

Concretely, ReThink makes content and events: the Reinventors podcast, the Rethink Reality writing contest, workshops and panels. Above all, ReThink is the team behind TEDx VinUniversity every year — the largest idea-sharing event at VinUni, run end to end by students, from choosing speakers and building content to designing the experience and running the night.

What sets ReThink apart is how we work: everything starts with the content. A question researched properly, a narrative built clearly — and only then the stage, the article or the campaign.

Six departments

Organizational Structure

Content Department

Builds the core idea and narrative for each activity, researches the subject, and owns speaker curation and content development alongside them.

MarCom Department

Sets communication strategy and the messaging system, and runs the campaigns that carry ReThink to a wider public.

Art Department

The “visual architects” who turn ReThink's ideas into striking published work — design, photography, video, audio and creative campaigns.

Human Resources Department

The organisation's glue — following and supporting members, building the culture, keeping ReThink's DNA alive through the things that bring people together.

External Engagement Department

Builds and keeps relationships with sponsors, partners and external stakeholders — before, during and after every event.

Event Department

Owns logistics and operations, and designs the audience journey and experience flow across the event — from budget to execution.

Championship — Fellowship — Breakership

The ReThinkers' Culture

Every ReThinker works, supports one another and grows on three cultural values:

Championship Culture

Take full ownership of what you do — from the vision to the handover. Never stop at “good enough”; play to win with care, persistence and real investment in the work.

Fellowship Culture

We get stronger by growing together — building spaces where each person feels safe, valued and heard.

Breakership Culture

We don't treat the familiar way of doing things as a given. Before each piece of work, ReThinkers ask why it's done that way — and whether there's a better fit.
