In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, selforganized events that bring people together to share a TEDlike experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, selforganized 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 selforganized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations). A quintessential entrepreneur, Tolan defines each mission, and then creatively and strategically develops the human resources to execute. He is also a philantropist and founded his own charity "Time4sharing" in 2000 which has empowered the lives of over 12,500 children in 5 countries. His talk on what stops people from getting what they desire and what they should do to get it is very insightful. Mixed with humour at appropriate places it keeps you glued to your seat.
