Theme: The Present is a Present | 好礼知时节

With a serial stereotyped labels of Panda, Sichuan Cuisine, Mahjong, Carpe Diem and so on, No doubt Chengdu has multiple identities, on one hand it is an inclusive wonderland for long, on the other hand it is well known oriental city around the globe. As such, we believe Chengdu is a mirror image of the World in place!

Nowadays, the pace of shift is accelerating to distract people's attentions from opting out collective thrivability, fast or slow, heritage or edges, native or exotic, naturalism or urbanization, technology innovation or public policies, it is high time to be realistic and optimistic, this year TEDxChengdu will blend the historical wisdom and future hope along the time trace, in order to explore Zeitgeist around the theme of present, with its dual meanings.

“熊猫、川菜、麻将、及时行乐”，这是外界对于成都标签化的刻板印象。这座城市无疑拥有多重脸谱，自古以来，成都便是包容富庶的乐活之地，自得其所；纵观全球，成都更是东方名城的中华样本，不偏不倚；我们相信：深读成都，即是宽读世界。

快与慢、非遗与时尚、民族风与舶来品、科技创新与公共政策、大自然力量与城市化浪潮，由点及面、以小见大，作为 TEDxChengdu 的首次年度大会，我们将沿着时间的脉络，溯往矣、追来者，探讨“当下”的时代精神。

本次 TEDxChengdu 大会的英文主题：The Present is a Present，取 Present 的双关意义，“当下的”与“礼物”。中⽂主题“好礼知时节”，取英⽂主题的“时间”与“礼物”意象，演生于唐朝著名文⼈杜甫描述锦官城（即古时成都）作品《春夜喜⾬》中的诗句。

我们将围绕 TED “广传创见”的核心理念，邀请世界各地来自科技、教育、文创、商业、设计、娱乐等领域近 20 组讲者与表演者，寄望在农历秋分时节，为生活在及向往天府之国的人们，寻得一份仪式性的表达，分享更多的乐观主义情绪，以此作礼，殷盼收悉！
