TEDxGateway has the same passion as TED: Spreading Ideas & Opening a gateway to innovation. Our mission is to reach out and inspire people to learn, share and discuss “Ideas Worth Spreading” that have the power and potential to make a difference in our lives, and our world. TEDxGateway will make headway into various aspects and industries and talk about how to take innovative ideas forward in a country with such great diversities and a phenomenal potential to be the next super power in the world. The first edition of TEDxGateway will gather some of the best creative and active thinkers from across the globe – from entrepreneurs to artists : inspiring, discovering, generating and sharing ideas worth spreading in diverse areas. We are a non-profit initiative based on the principles of social entrepreneurship by which we simply mean that we place a good and inspiring cause at the centre of our efforts and activities, and apart from the direct costs associated with the conferences and organizing we use all income to foster that cause and help a community forming around it.
