Theme: Building For the Future

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).

Baia Abuladze

She is the founder of Baia’s Wine, a young and successful vineyard in Georgia. Established in 2015 when Baia was just 22, the company has focused on forging direct contacts with wine shops and restaurants and establishing a niche in the market. Building on her family’s historical involvement in wine production, Baia’s Wine has already achieved success and visibility by winning a silver medal at the Wine Grand Prix in Germany and has sold a large quantity of bottles in its first fiscal year. Baia would like to encourage other young women in Georgia to engage more with entrepreneurial opportunities, particularly in those sectors which may not immediately jump to mind for many women, such as agriculture.
