School: St.George’s School Düsseldorf Rhein-Ruhr

Creating a future in line with our human interests, values, and goals.

The lasting memory of my time at St. George’s is the enriching atmosphere. There is so much attention given to every student. You’re treated as an individual that has a unique path and unique personality. It is like being part of a family.

After her years at St. George’s, Iliana attended Oxford University, completed a master’s at IE University, and has worked in startups, NGOs and global corporates in China, Africa and Europe. She has founded her own business @quietsocialclub - a global community and personal growth education platform. Through a combination of virtual and in-person events, programmes and tools, they transform the way people live and work in an increasingly digitized world.

Iliana comes back to St. George’s to share her experience with our Secondary students. In inspiring presentations, she explores themes of entrepreneurship, the skills of the future, and the importance of facing challenges and setbacks with a growth mindset. A wonderful opportunity to stay connected and for our students to hear first-hand about the possibilities and opportunities that await them.
