Theme: You are the future

The theme chosen for TEDxESEV is "You're the Future". From this theme we will try to inspire and captivate the younger generations and beyond. The goal of TEDxESEV is the same, to go beyond generations, to make a difference, is to bring ideals and stories to the widest possible audience.

We hope to reflect and foster the idea that we are all the future in each one of us. It is important to remember that there are no definite definitions of the future as there are no limits to dreams.
