I am honored and overwhelmed to be invited as a Speaker by TEDxBNMIT, scheduled this Saturday, March 14th, 2015.
The theme is "Next Is Here" - Inspiring stories of people who are doing things what would become a necessity in coming days.
TEDx say - "For many years now, the future has been looked at as a utopian concept. A concept that sounds exciting but one that we always thought was too good to really exist. But on numerous occasions in history, some individuals have shown us that it is possible to create a future that we dream of. The weak while “believe only when they see”, the strong “see what they believe!” And today, more than ever before, nothing seems “too good to exist” because of the efforts of some ordinary people who had some exceptional ideas. In the true spirit of ideas worth sharing, TEDxBNMIT is proud to have brought together an elite group of such achievers. With their skills, ideas and tenacity they're bringing the future, to the present. At TEDxBNMIT we believe that it isn't the time to ask “What's next” anymore, because Next is here."

Looking forward for a lovely interaction with co-speakers and audience that day. Wish me luck folks! :)

Are TED talks different from TEDx talks?
For all the people who might be a little confused about what TED and TEDx is, here's a lovely little video from TED explaining the difference between the two.
The challenge I am facing while preparing for it
TEDx talks are restricted to 18 minutes only. Preparing the talk for 18mins on such a VAST subject is more than tough I could have imagined! This is the most challenging part for me right now!
My all time Support System
My OTG friends have been so very supportive to me congratulating me and telling to "go for it". I am so thankful for them for such an encouraging spirit!Looking forward for a lovely interaction with co-speakers and audience that day. Wish me luck folks! :)
