TEDxUCHILE is the chosen name and represents the desire of University of Chile to be part of the TEDx conferences and to share its advances and innovations. Today we want to carry out a second version, to continue the positive impact achieved by our first version at national local community levels, and also impacting students. We want to showcase the vision of innovative speakers, academics from our university and others academic institutions. We want to show what they are doing in terms of Digital Transformation and how it can -beyond technological progress- be considered as a cultural transformation that positively affects the world of work and education.
We believe that Digital Transformation is something that should be developed along leadership that involves women, and also enables the inclusion of people with physical disabilities in the world of work and knowledge. At the same time promotes responsibility in the delivery of technology to young people (children and teenagers), and innovation in the business environment by promoting organization with meaning. As the University is an institution with purpose and values, looking to provide the right environment for each of its members to find meaning in what they do. Digital Transformation requires promoting an inner Transformation that allows the evolution of people becoming a contribution to the development of the planet and of humanity as a whole.
Our country, Chile, has an important geographical barrier such as the Andes mountains, we are a naturally isolated country. Due to this need for connection, communication with the world is that we want to share our knowledge, show the work that our university has been doing with outstanding people and remarkable management.
The event will be focused on transformation, on the connection between people, on the proper use of technology, on reflection and the ability to create digital thinking, aiming to helps us finding solutions to different situations or problems. We want to spread ideas associated with these concepts based on science, aiming to inspire our community and the world, to excite and generate reflection on how we are living the Human and Digital Transformation, in different areas: Education, Science, Work. All this along Human Development, a fundamental conditioning factor for positive changes in people's lives.
