Lisbon, Portugal
Under the theme “What if…?” we want to focus on Challenges in technology, society and most prominently environment are having significant impact on the evolution of our world and day-to-day lives. We want to use the conference to open the door of discussing these important challenges from a variety of angles and ask questions that are uncomfortable and challenge any individuals norm:
- What if we do not start to use the available resources more sustainably?
- What if the trend of societal assimilation continues?
- What if technology is not handled in an ethical way?
What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxCatólicaLisbonSBE, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxCatólicaLisbonSBE event, TED Talks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
This independent TEDx event is operated under license from TED.
