Theme: Exploring Frontiers- Rising Above and Beyond

TEDxISMEBangalore 2024 is set to explore the exciting frontiers that are shaping our world today. This year's theme, "Exploring Frontiers," will bring together inspiring minds who are pushing boundaries and pioneering new ideas across diverse fields. We look forward to thought-provoking talks on cutting-edge technology and innovation, business and entrepreneurship and social change.

Storytelling and artistic expression take the center stage. It explores how teaching has been revolutionized. Imagine educators and artists working together to use theater and the arts to create eclectic learning experiences! The topic of the is sustainability. We delve into the idea of "zero waste" and creative design strategies that reduce waste during a product's lifecycle. However, this discussion goes beyond lofty ideals and equips people to change the world in tiny, everyday ways by adhering to basic ideas.

Technology has promising potential for societal benefit and is not impersonal as it may be used to solve problems in elementary education, public healthcare and data-driven decision making. We are centered on the future and anticipated technology being used to rise above and beyond.
