TEDxBrisbane is Brisbane’s premier ideas festival. We are provocateurs of change. We are dedicated to showcasing Brisbane’s best ideas to the world and bringing great ideas from the world to the TEDxBrisbane community to inform and drive change in our city. And as much as we love great ideas, we have no intention of stopping there. At TEDxBrisbane we are determined to see great ideas put into action. We are all about impact. We’re on a mission to change our community, our city and the world. Our community is made up of people crazy enough to believe we can change the world, and we’re not kidding around. Our mission is to make the world good, not just better. We do this by connecting ideas worth spreading with a community of thinkers, doers and change makers, inspiring them to translate ideas into action that makes a positive difference. We call it our engineering impact strategy, and it informs everything we do, making attending a TEDxBrisbane event a truly unique experience. It starts with the careful selection of ideas worth spreading for the stage. While our focus is on Brisbane, ideas have no borders, so if we find an idea from somewhere else in Australia that deserves to be shared on a TEDx stage, we’ll happily showcase Australian ideas to the world as well. We hand-pick each of the ideas to be presented on our stage with great care, as the essential first step in creating positive impact. But it doesn’t stop there.
