TEDxSummit: The Impact of TEDx

0:01 - 0:03

Lara Stein:The TEDx community
is connecting people and ideas,
0:03 - 0:07

but there is this pressure that they
would like to take their next step.
0:07 - 0:10

How do we now take these ideas and do
something with them in our community?
0:10 - 0:13

John Marston: We are now in the
second year of a three-year program
0:13 - 0:17

to increase the wellness
of everybody in our community.
0:17 - 0:24

Hundreds of micro-iniatives that will,
hopefully, result in us all living to be a hundred plus.
0:24 - 0:26

Candice Langston: Another TEDx organizer
0:26 - 0:29

launched a non-profit called "Queen City Forward",
0:29 - 0:31

bringing social entrepreneurs to the forefront.
0:31 - 0:34

Jacqui Chew: She spoke about how
software development is like a dance.
0:34 - 0:36

It was a beautiful metaphor.
0:36 - 0:38

Samia Lounis: That was
the trigger for him to do it.
0:38 - 0:40

And he did start his own consulting firm.
0:40 - 0:44

Phil Klein: He invented a one hundred mile
per gallon automobile from scratch
0:44 - 0:47

using software development
technologies and techniques.
0:47 - 0:49

They were one of the competitors
in Automotive X Prize.
0:49 - 0:52

Stephan Balzer: Just the matter of fact
that you do this,
0:52 - 0:54

that you go on stage and you talk about an idea --
0:54 - 0:58

-- it's so strong and so fascinating and it gives hope.
0:58 - 1:02

I think it really gives hope to people
that change is possible.
