Make plans to attend TEDxLagos which holds on Friday the 27th of September, 2013 at the Lagos Oriental Hotel. The event will run from 10:00AM.

Created in the spirit of the TED mission, “ideas worth spreading.” The program is designed to give communities, organizations and individuals for and in Nigeria the opportunity to stimulate dialogue through TED-like experiences in Lagos.

The conference is multi-disciplinary; the theme: INCLUSION, is broad enough that it will encapsulate the work of all the speakers and performers in their wide range of fields. It will give a common thread that will tie the live speakers and performers; helping ideas flow from one presentation or performance into the next.

At TEDxLagos, live presenters will spark deep conversation and connections. The event is fully planned and coordinated independently by volunteers for and in Nigeria.

What will their talks and performances be about?  What makes the speakers hopeful for the future? What do they reflect on? You need to be at the TEDxLagos to know all these!

Attendance is FREE: Register here.
