TEDxYYC livestreaming through Bnettv.com on Friday, Feb 26th
As the list of TEDx events grows, TEDxYYC will be live streaming theirs this Friday, from the Karo Design building in Calgary.
The list of speakers include the 18-year-old Eden Full, a social entrepreneur and environmentalist; Ben Cameron, the program director of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation for the Arts; Jennifer Martin, CEO of the Telus World of Science; Chris Turner, author of A Geography of Hope; and many more.
"We're excited about bringing together such a diverse selection of speakers for the day." says Alex Middlelton, event co-chair. "We believe it will be interesting to hear from industries that most attendees don't typically interact with on a daily basis."

About TEDx
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TEDlikeexperience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x=independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
*full disclosure: I'm helping organize this.
