This year’s theme is Pathways. The human experience is a journey. A journey filled with pathways – some straight and predictable, others curvy and challenging. Some pathways lead us to new experiences, while others help us achieve something more.
If we pay attention, the experiences, challenges or questions that arise for each of us have the potential to change the trajectory of our work and life. To change or guide our pathways, TEDxHilliard 2018 will highlight the experiences, challenges, questions, and pathways that lead to innovation, new products, better community relations, or a deeper understanding of the human condition.
Hilliard has been at the center of educational and local business innovation, and a growing number of creative outlets. This event is named as such to be inclusive of the school, business, and non-profit partnerships that are coming together to support this opportunity to spread the ideas from our community to reach others and join the TEDx movement.
Think of TEDxHilliard as an awesome dinner party, with great food, inspirational performances, brilliant speakers and mind-blowing conversation. By joining us for the event, you will have the opportunity to be a part of a truly unique event that will unleash new ideas, inspire and inform.
Connect with us on Facebook and Twitter.
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 TEDxHilliard, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxHilliard event, live speakers, musicians and artists will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
