TED West Coast Conference headed to Vancouver in 2014!!
I don’t know about you, but I love TED Talks. So I was excited to hear that TED will be celebrating it’s 30 Year Anniversary in Vancouver!
From the TED Website:
In 2014, TED will celebrate our 30th anniversary. And to mark this spectacular event, we’re planning something very special. We are moving our annual West Coast conference from Long Beach, California, to Vancouver, Canada. From March 17 to March 21, 2014, TED will be held in this great city, which boasts a thriving spirit of innovation as well as stunning views — the harbor and mountains in the same scenic vistas.
The event will be held in the Vancouver Convention Centre and promises to be a week filled with engaging, inspiring and informative sessions. There will be something for everyone.
AND…
TEDActive 2014 is set to be held in Whistler!
Registration for both TED2014 and TEDActive 2014 will open on Monday, February 11, 2013.
I too am excited to hear that this conference is moving to Vancouver! Not only that, but I also hear that Vancouver is now the home of their headquarters. Nice! Now I have a hope of actually attending. The downside, aside from all the biggest thinkers in the world converging on Vancouver? Traffic?
Hmmmm, but ticket prices are $7500?! That puts it out of the league of most of us

Gulp…yes, hopefully there will be some freebies and giveaways! Innovation and enlightenment should not just be for the wealthy!
