Theme: Beyond The Horizon

For this year’s TEDxBISB, the theme is Beyond the Horizon. The organizing team wants people who have aspirations about the future to share their knowledge and research to prompt a response from the audience to think, develop, and to take action. The future is ours. We are responsible for building the future to make it a better place to live in. To educate people about knowledge Beyond the Horizon we have invited professionals from various fields, including biology, chemistry, education, charity, linguistic and psychology, to talk about their research and aspirations for the future!
