TEDxBucharest 2010
The TEDxBucharest team invites you to the brightest most idea-generator event of the autumn, TEDxBucharest 2010. Get to know people like Nik Halik, Raluca van Staden, Oana Pellea, Catalin Stefanescu and many more on the 15th of October, in Bucharest, where good ideas come in 18 minute servings. The theme for 2010 is Today is a GOOD Day. Let’s make it a good day together.
TEDxBucharest 2010 is an independently organized event and acts as a catalyst for communities, organizations and individuals to start conversations about great ideas.
The day-long event will bring together opinion and business leaders from all walks of life to listen to top speakers and their “ideas worth spreading”, watch amazing tech demos, get inspired by local talent and enjoy beautiful art
and entertainment.
About TED
TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 25 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. The annual TED Conference invites the world’s leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes. Their talks are then made available, free, at TED.com.
TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Al Gore, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Nandan Nilekani, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Isabel Allende and UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The annual TED Conference takes place in Long Beach, California, with simulcast in Palm Springs; TEDGlobal is held each year in Oxford, UK. TED’s media initiatives include TED.com, where new TEDTalks are posted daily, and the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as the ability for any TEDTalk to be translated by volunteers worldwide.
TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world are given the opportunity to put their wishes into action; TEDx, which offers individuals or groups a way to host local, self-organized events around the world; and the TEDFellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.
