LEVEL UP is a change in thought and a transition in mindset. The fuel that drives this change is the desire to make an idea real. As humans, we invariably face challenges, failures and setbacks. But should we let these experiences define us? Instead we can use these experiences to drive our purpose, passion and commitment in order to 'Level Up'. Level up simply means to empower yourself in a dynamic manner with boundless creativity, immense innovation and everlasting enthusiasm.

Introducing the theme for TEDxGurugram 2019 - LEVEL UP

Transformational ideas from remarkable people.
