About this event
TED has a simple motto that says it all: Ideas worth spreading. TED’s entire model—and TEDxABQ’s—is centered around the power of ideas that will capture the minds of the audience, disseminate information, change perspectives and cultures, and instill knowledge for those who want to consider the possibilities. When dispersed, ideas can exponentially change our community, or even the world, forever.
At TEDxABQ’s 2022 general event, we will focus on Connection! Fundamental to human existence, altered by public health challenges, and meanwhile the very fabric of meaning in all of our pursuits. Now is the time to connect… connect to each other and connect to ideas worth spreading!
Doors open at 12:30 pm - reception following the event.
