Note from the Founder
"This is an attempt to make debates alive again. A flawless event is not guaranteed, but what is guaranteed is that this event serves as the cornerstone to further innovations in the debate ecosystem."
"Trovilly was built from a simple frustration: Debate had become predictable and boring. This Grand Prix is an attempt to reimagine what debate can be — more dynamic, more inclusive, and more intellectually challenging."
"This is the first edition. And you are part of the beginning. Come prepared. Come curious. Come competitive."
