In society, there are speakers, who have stories to share and listeners, who benefit from such stories. We, at D.P.S. Faridabad, know many such speakers and our curious students are the listeners!
The school wanted to increase students' interactions with the world around them and acquaint them with brilliant minds who have done so much for this society.
We all already know that TEDx Talks is an extremely potent platform for all to express their values and experiences and there is hardly a bigger, better platform than a TEDx event to fulfill this aim. Thus, began the incredible journey of TEDx greeting D.P.S. Faridabad.

Our theme for this year is 'Unleash'.
This special theme has been chosen not only to Unleash the ideas of all the wonderful personalities at our event but 'Unleash' also describes our goal as a fraternity, that believes in unleashing the creativity and the inner voice of the students; who can make a positive impact in the society and the world around them.
Eric Thomas once said, "You cannot afford to live in potential for the rest of your life; at some point you have to unleash your potential and make a move.
