ABOUT
TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to “ Ideas worth Spreading”. Started as a conference in California 1984, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with many initiatives. In the spirit of “Ideas worth spreading”, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. (For more information on this global idea-sharing and change making platform see www.ted.com).We are proud to announce the first TEDx event hosted in Bellville! Bellville is located in the heart of Cape Town, and has always been known by its pioneering spirit. Founding fathers declared it "12 mile post" in 1861, where wagons span out for farmers bringing their produce to Cape Town. A number of villages were formed around the emerging railway town. Today Bellville is a multicultural urban region, home to diverse peoples and cultures.
TEDxBellville is a dynamic community exchange which features riveting and gripping talks, stories and performances by remarkable local people. With our theme being : “Pioneering Possibilities”, we want to foster a creative learning space where the diversity of Bellville's pioneers will be showcased: designers, technology entrepreneurs, musicians, scientists, medical professionals, community leaders, and other visionaries who are creating positive change.
Come join us for our Pioneering Ideas, Pioneering Places and Pioneering Spirit!
