Graduation Ceremony
On Friday, March 27, aivancity celebrated the achievements of its Class of 2025 at its fourth graduation ceremony. It was an evening that was both solemn and deeply heartfelt, filled with pride, emotion, and a sense of hope for the future.
 
Alongside the graduates and their loved ones, two figures stood out at this moment: Tawhid Chtioui, founding president of aivancity, and Homeric de Sarthe, the class patron and CEO of CraftAI—a committed entrepreneur and influential voice in the AI ecosystem.

A ceremony celebrating excellence

The highlight of the evening, the recognition of the valedictorians, embodied the students’ academic excellence and dedication:

  • Didi Charnelle Kuete – Valedictorian of the MSc in Data Management program
  • Wiem Ben Ameur – Valedictorian of the MSc in Data Engineering
  • AIB: Francesco Loiudice – Graduate of the MSc in Artificial Intelligence for Business
  • Hermès Ndjeng – Valedictorian of the Grande École Program

Remarkable achievements, celebrated by the entire aivancity community.

“A degree is built day by day”

  • Dr. Tawhid Chtioui, Founding President of aivancity School of AI & Data for Business & Society
  • In a speech that was both inspiring and insightful, Tawhid Chtioui encouraged the graduates to rethink their perspective on success:
    “A degree is not an end in itself; it’s a stepping stone. In real life, you earn it a little more each day through your choices, your challenges, and your ability to keep learning.”
 
A powerful message that resonates with aivancity’s core values: developing professionals capable of thriving in a constantly changing world. 
 
He also highlighted one of the school’s founding commitments: the Lifetime Updated Diploma©, designed to support careers in a constantly evolving technological environment.
 

Inspire, share, dare

As the class patron, Homeric de Sarthe shared a personal and inspiring story, reflecting on his entrepreneurial journey.

A heartfelt account marked by challenges, bold choices, and the ability to reinvent oneself—all of which he encouraged the graduates to embrace in order to unlock their potential.

A moment suspended between pride and aspiration

The ceremony was followed by a reception, giving the graduates a chance to celebrate with their families, teachers, and the entire community.

A rare moment where memories of the journey behind us meet the energy of what lies ahead.

A new chapter begins

More than just an ending, this graduation ceremony marks a new beginning.

Today, aivancity graduates are entering a world where artificial intelligence is redefining business models, professions, and responsibilities.

They now have the technical, business, and ethical tools they need to play an active role in it.

Congratulations to all the 2025 graduates. The future starts now.
