An Evening of TED: Riveting talks by remarkable people
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design. It started out (in
1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds.
Since then its scope has become ever broader and you will be surprise
at the diversity of interesting things that are covered. The annual conference
now brings together the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers who
are challenged to give the talk of their lives in about 18 minutes each.
To attend in person costs about £4000 a seat and the conferences
for the next few years are already sold out! However by the magic of the
Internet we can hold our own TED here in Bainton.

The format will be to select a few of the best speakers and show them
on a big screen. The evening will be informal with time to chat as well
as listen.
I hope to see you there … Everyone welcome.
