GEORGE NEWS - The exciting inaugural TEDxGeorge, a gathering of the brightest local minds and innovators, is taking place on 5 October at the George Arts Theatre.
This event marks the beginning of an annual tradition where thinkers and doers converge to explore a wide array of topics, from technology and entertainment to science, humanities, business, and development.
Themed “The Brave Ones,” this event celebrates locals who have continuously taken bold steps in their respective fields.
By providing a platform for them to share their stories, activities, and future aspirations, TEDxGeorge will inspire and empower others to reach their highest potential, despite challenges they may face.
TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) has become synonymous with ground-breaking ideas and inspirational talks.
