Description

Situated close to Cape Town, South Africa, and surrounded by the magnificent mountain scenery of the Jonkershoek valley lies the historic town of Stellenbosch. Here, in the country’s second oldest town, one will find the Eerste River flowing out of the mountains and into a shallow, alluvial and fertile valley. A clear metaphor for the potential within each human being.TEDxStellenbosch is a unique community that celebrates world-changing African ideas. A curated lineup of speakers and storytellers from across disciplines take to the stage to inspire an audience of between 450 and 550 thinkers and doers. The annual gathering sees a collision of great minds, whether young or old, although always with a sense of wonder and curiosity. The sparks ignited and the relationships started allow ideas to roll beyond the one day event. The ideas shared from the stage are only one component. It is the community that develops around the event that is the true magic of TEDxStellenboschOur world evolved from a storied past and has an uncertain future. With such radical disruption taking place globally, in both business and society, there seems to be no better time than now to ask questions - questions about how it got to where it is today, how it could have been different, and more importantly, how it could change in the future.At TEDxStellenbosch 2015 we start with ourselves and our own environment, we will look into the past, present, and future. We will bring together a group of thinkers and doers, both speakers and attendees, for a day of asking visionary questions - questions that start with thwo words: What if…Now it is your turn. Plant the seed of an idea wherever you can, and water it with passion and energy, so that it may one day sustain us all. “I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do.” -Edward Everett Hale
