TEDxBirmingham 2014 is a day-long mind spa that will feature 14 local speakers sharing ideas to help attendees “Rediscover the Magic” of Birmingham. There will also be several artistic performers featured on stage, as well as select TED talks shown.
The power of “Ideas Worth Spreading” will continue outside of the theater during numerous breaks, allowing ample opportunities for attendees to connect and converse. The venue will feature numerous hands-on activities to engage attendees’ minds, bodies, and spirits. The day will end with a reception featuring a tasting from Chris Hastings of the Hot and Hot Fish Club.
Attendees of TEDxBirmingham will represent a diverse cross-disciplinary mix of people, ranging from civic and business leaders to professionals, educators, technologists, artists, and more. Being a part of TEDxBirmingham is an opportunity to share ideas and experiences with this amazing cross section of people. In addition to the live program, a free livestream will be available on the TEDxBirmingham website for the duration of the event.
