CTB介绍 Introduction to CTB

CTB（China Thinks Big），即“全球青年研究创新论坛”，其模式源于哈佛大学的经典项目 “Harvard Thinks Big”。2012年，该项目由哈佛商学院与清华大学相关机构共同引入中国，如今已发展成为覆盖18个国家和地区、影响数万名高中生的国际级学术实践平台。CTB秉承 “Think Big, Start Small”（立大志，做小事）的核心精神，鼓励青年人从身边的具体问题出发，运用专业知识与能力，推动切实的改变。

CTB (China Thinks Big), known as the "Global Youth Research and Innovation Forum," is modeled after Harvard University's flagship program "Harvard Thinks Big." In 2012, the program was introduced to China through a collaboration between Harvard Business School and relevant institutions at Tsinghua University. It has since evolved into an international academic platform that spans 18 countries and regions, engaging tens of thousands of high school students. Guided by its core philosophy of "Think Big, Start Small," CTB encourages young people to identify concrete issues in their immediate environment and apply their knowledge and skills to drive tangible change.
