TEDx Edmonton is a wrap!
03/15/2010TEDx Edmonton is a wrap! And what a great day it was.
No doubt more recaps about TEDx Edmonton will be reflected on and written about by many of you. We’re looking forward to reading and hearing more from you as you spread the ideas you heard, and as you spread a few of your own ideas along the way. You can already check out some photos from the day here (lots more to come), and stay tuned for the presentation videos that we’ll edit and post in the coming weeks. Send us your links and photos, so we can share them here too. In the meantime, some final thoughts and thanks:
To our presenters – Tim Antoniuk, Shawna Pandya, Andrew Hessel, Shafraaz Kaba, Theresa Howland, Grant Skinner, Cameron Herold, Sean Stewart and Krystle dos Santos – thanks for taking time out of your super busy lives to share your passions, stories, music (and madlibs) with us. Same goes to my fellow hosts, Cam Linke, Stephani Carter and Michael Brechtel. It was great to share the stage and this journey with you.
To our event partners and my fellow organizing committee members – all your hard work, dedication and contributions helped us put on a show to remember. From setting up the venue, to the set design, to the camera work, to the audio and even dealing with a glitch (or crash) or two – you were all fantastic.















From Avenue Magazine: “When trying to imagine the future of Edmonton, one has to picture the future faces that will shape it. These faces are of urban planners mapping the new city, community workers enhancing our quality of life, entrepreneurs enriching the local economy and artists sending our brand out to the world. In Avenue’s inaugural Top 40 Under 40, we seek to honour the brightest and most talented individuals under the age of 40 who are excelling in their careers, giving back to the community and raising the city’s profile. They are the generation of today making a better future for the people of tomorrow.”
