TED Talks in Pretoria

The mind-shifting short-talk phenomenon returns to Tshwane in November for a day of disruptive ideas and bold new voices challenging a business-savvy audience to reboot their thoughts and actions to meet the needs of the future.

What to expect?
The theme for this year is “I am”
#iAm is not a simplistic notion. In South Africa, identity, race, religion, gender and culture in the context of PURPOSE is big!
#iAm investigates ideas worth spreading beyond identity politics towards potential, purity, possibility and radical empowerment for thriving communities.

#iAm is about being and becoming against LIFE’s canvas of geographies, sociology, super tech and design, arts, jobs, my space, emotional and belief systems, environment, stewardship, ownership and responsibility, green vs industry, Africa and her history, and more.
