8/18/19: Let's talk about Nature, Resiliency, and Growth! TEDxSkyforest presents a diverse line-up of speakers brought together by LOVE for Smaller Towns and PASSION for Bigger Thinking. More than half of humanity is living in Big Cities today. All except for a diminishing sliver of us are connected by the internet and global politics. What does the world look like from the perspective of a Smaller Town today? What impact has TECHNOLOGY and ENTERTAINMENT had on Smaller Towns? How can we DESIGN Smaller Towns for Bigger Thinking?
2020 UPDATE: There is no production scheduled at this time. TEDxSkyforest continues to welcome volunteers as well as prospective sponsors and potential speakers. Connect with us @TEDxSkyforest and let's support #glocal community together!
