This year’s TEDxBryantU event is looking for dedicated and creative volunteers to serve as TEDxBryantU speakers. The theme for the event will be Breaking Barriers. The Legendary Michael Jordan states “Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.” Talks should consider the various ways we can improve and better serve the world we live in by “breaking barriers.” In a divided and polarized global climate, fresh perspectives can unlock a world of opportunity for change. These talks should offer fresh perspectives on what breaking a barrier means to you-whether it pertains to your personal life, professional life, a disability or a time of adversity in your life which has made you into the accomplished individual you are today. We are looking for talks on a wide variety of topics – whatever you believe is important for our society!
A committee of students organizing the event will choose speakers from among Bryant’s faculty, students, staff, and alumni. Please share with us if you have an idea worth spreading. Interviews to become a speaker will take place after the application window has closed.
Please submit the application and a copy of your resume or brief biography no later than October 18th to tedx@bryant.edu
Please email the team with any additional questions.
On behalf of the TEDx BryantU committee, thank you in advance for taking the time to complete the application process & we look forward to hearing your ideas!
