The Lake Constance (Bodensee) region is known for its mixture of land- and seascape, closeness of the Alps, it's agriculture and High-Tech. This is the place, where historically the Zeppelin and the large Do X seaplanes were invented and built. Today it is still the region where most of the apples eaten in Germany grow but also a center for the European High-Tech industry with space satellite and
automotive technology as well as electronics at it's heart. People and companies in the region are developing new ideas, innovative concepts and technologies for sustainable ways to do agriculture, food production, education and energy production. The talks of TEDxBodensee will be rooted in this context and the preparation is well under way. Subscribe to our newsletter on the temporary website, we'll keep you updated with news.
Über TEDx, x = unabhängig organisierter Event
Im Geiste der Ideen, die es wert sind, verbreitet zu werden, ist TEDx ein Programm lokaler, selbst-organisierter Events, die Menschen zusammen bringen, um eine TED-artige Erfahrung zu teilen. Bei einem TEDx-Event werden TEDTalks-Videos und live Vorträge kombiniert, um tiefe Diskussionen und Verbindungen in einer kleinen Gruppe anzuregen. Diese lokalen, selbst-organisierten Events werden TEDx genannt, wobei das x für unabhängig organisiertes TED-Event steht. Die TED-Konferenz leistet allgemeine Hilfestellungen für das TEDx-Programm, jedoch sind TEDx-Events immer selbst-organisiert. About TED
