Relentless Pursuits
For our 2014 TEDxToronto Conference, all talks, performances and demos will be rooted in our selected theme, “Relentless Pursuits.”
We are driven by our pursuits. They are the ideas, goals and dreams in our lives that we commit to which are greater than ourselves, fuelled by a passion, dedication and the burning desire to achieve. Our relentless pursuits are what engage us and provide us with intense focus to improve the experience of tomorrow. They are the manifestation of our ideas in action and give us the uncompromising determination to venture into the unknown. Relentless pursuits feed our curiosity of the world, and present worthwhile challenges that bring meaning to our lives. This year's TEDxToronto theme is a relentless pursuit of not just ideas worth spreading but ideas worth doing.
