To Travel is to Live | Luka Zivkovic | TEDxCambridgeSchoolofBucharest

Luka will deliver a thought-provoking talk to our students and staff, inspiring the next generation of changemakers.

- 17:07Deconstruyendo TEDxVitoriaGasteiz 2025 Enjoy | Jon Beltrán de Heredia | TEDxVitoriaGasteizDespués de escuchar a los otros ponentes en TEDxVitoriaGasteiz Enjoy (2025), Jon desarrolla su propia presentación a modo de resumen del evento en clave de humor. Una forma perfecta para concluir este evento TEDx. Y para terminar interpreta un tema a duo. Es un hecho conocido que la comedia es donde los músicos frustrados van a morir. En mi caso, tuve que pasar por el mundo del videojuego para que la frustración creativa pudiera llegar al máximo y la olla pudiera estallar en una gran explosión de chistes dudosos de fondo agridulce.He desarrollado videojuegos, alguno de éxito internacional. He creado y vendido herramientas de programación. He escrito un libro, publicado en 1994, lo que me hace oficialmente viejo. Además, satisface sólo parcialmente mi ansia creativa, ya que trata sobre el limitadamente poético lenguaje ensamblador. He trabajado para la inteligencia americana escribiendo software para detectar metáforas en persa; os puedo contar que sí que tiene una parte tan «cool» como cuentan las películas: el «paycheck«.

- 8:47The Fire That Made Us | Ajeet Brar | TEDxJASS YouthHumans survived and thrived not because of strength or speed, but because of cooperation and connection. Our brains and bodies evolved to foster empathy, trust, and social bonds that were essential for survival. In today’s fast-paced world, despite technology, genuine human connection remains vital for our health and happiness. The future depends on us remembering that we are strongest when we stand together.

- 10:30Don't shoot the messenger | Faraz Islam | TEDxBISHCMC YouthThe recent political climate has made this clearer than ever—truth and substance no longer determine what persuades people. Instead, it is the identity of the messenger and the way the message is framed that hold the most influence. In an era where information is both more accessible and more manipulated than ever, we need to learn how to protect ourselves from these influences while also understanding how to use them to improve our own communication and persuasiveness. My name is Faraz Islam and I'm a Year 12 student; I’ve always been fascinated by how people judge ideas not on their merit, but based on who delivers them and how they are presented.
