In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).

AUDREY Nguyen

Singer

And for TEDxYouth@PTNK, sheโ€™s stepping into the light for you to see her better as a person and an artist, delving into the process of how to build our inner harmony. Just like how artists create the symphony, our inner harmony originates from reflecting and embracing all aspects of who we are.

Both professionally and in his hobbies, Ethan fascinated by uncertainty: he collects dice, does improvisational acting, plays the flute, participates in intercultural dialogues with Anti-Racist Dialogue Circles, is the creator of the R package simpr for simulation and design analysis, wanders in nature, eats absolutely everything (yes, he loves mแบฏm tรดm!), and enjoys reading Tarot.
