Since the dawn of time, man had a fire of inquisitiveness burning inside. He wanted to know more and more about the world around him. Without doubt, this immense curiosity for new ideas led to the invention and discovery of everything we know today.
TED is an organisation that caters to human curiosity and is a platform to encourage new ways of thinking. Today, TED has emerged as a massive community of inspired thinkers who believe passionately in the enormous power of ideas to change lives and the world as we know it.
Driven individuals who want their communities to experience this 'power of ideas' organise TEDx events within their localities. They aim to inspire, change and elevate.
TEDxNITTrichy is the brainchild of a student who wanted to ignite ideas. Along with his group of organisers, he hosted the first ever edition of TEDxNITTrichy. Two editions later, TEDxNITTrichy 2017 beckons has another thought provoking experience. A spirited group of individuals, ranging from Neetan Chopra, Senior vice president of Emirates to Rifath Shaarook and Mohammed Khashif, inventors of KalamSAT, will present their novel and brilliant ideas.
Kotak Mahindra Bank, Cholamandalam Investments and Finance and FastTrack are benefactors for this event.
The theme for this year is 'Mosaic'. Quite unique in meaning, 'Mosaic' stands for how the small ideas that rumble on in everyone's minds are a part of something much bigger. It represents the beauty of how minuscule ideas can have a wholesome and lasting effect on the world.
Apart from the phenomenal line up of speakers, the event also promises insightful and interactive activities, a lunch session to network with the interesting people around and a complementary AudEx Kit filled with goodies. In short, 19th of August 2017 is slated to be a day you won't forget.
