Announcing TEDxLive in Hilo – February 29th, 2012

At TEDx events, a screening of TEDTalks videos — or a combination of live presenters and TEDTalks videos — sparks deep conversation and connections. TEDx events are fully planned and coordinated independently, on a community-by-community basis.

TEDxLive Hilo is your local venue for the live simulcast of TED2012. This is a public event and you’re invited!

We’re in the midst of a dramatic reinvention of the ancient art of the spoken word. The surprising spread of talks online and the explosion of TEDx events around the globe are testament to that.

Mahalo for considering your involvement with TEDxHilo.

This is a grassroots effort. Volunteer organizers are needed for this event. We humbly request your help to organize, produce and deliver TEDxHilo.

The connections you make at TEDxHilo will last a lifetime. The knowledge, expertise and perspectives are capable of condensing years of information into bite-sized chunks that are easy to digest.

We need immediate and promotional support now to launch our marketing and ticket sales efforts.

Specific needs from the community:

  • Media Professionals to alert their channels, attend and report.
  • Community Business Leaders to get involved in the discussion to shape ideas for business leading towards job creation.
