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!

TEDxLive is an extension of the TEDx program, launched by TED in 2010. TEDxLive events are TEDx events built around the live webcast of TED Conferences. TEDxLive events enable TED enthusiasts all over the world to experience live sessions of the TED Conference; events can be simple viewing events, and may also host live speakers.

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.

In the spirit of TED events everywhere, we invite eeveryone to come share your “ideas worth spreading.” Let us know, help us learn, understand and raise awareness in otheres so we may all articulate the challenges and solutions to make positive change happen in our tiny bit of paradise.
