TEDxSoweto

ABOUT

TEDxSoweto 2013 takes place on Saturday 2 November under the theme ‘Creativity – The answer to all questions’. We’re inviting remarkable people doing amazing work to illustrate that no matter how high the obstacle, how deep the problem, or how complex the situation, the human mind will keep asking questions until it finds answers. Our speakers will cover the full spectrum of endeavours – education, technology, theology, music, robotics, astronomy, photography, philosophy, energy, youth, design, film and perhaps even politics.

We’re expecting a diverse audience of curious souls and open minds, and others interested in the space between ideas, the connections that make groundbreaking thinking possible. Many will come from Soweto, but most will come from everywhere else in the greater Johannesburg area – Sandton, Alexandra, Houghton, Lenasia, etc.

We’re thrilled that this event will again take place at the Soweto Theatre, the new home for TEDxSoweto. We look forward to many happy years at this, arguably Johannesburg’s best-equipped theatre facility.

The standard fee for this event is R500. NGOs and students pay R250. Special tickets for friends of TEDxSoweto are available at R900. The fees cover the very popular x-goodies bag, teas and coffees for the day, a sumptuous lunch and entry into the networking reception at the end. Inspiration comes free.
