At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TE

Started as a four-day conference in California almost 30 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. The two annual TED Conferences invite the world's leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes on a diverse mix of topics. Many of these talks are then made available, free, at TED.com. TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Nandan Nilekani, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Isabel Allende and former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The TED2014 Conference will take place in Vancouver, British Columbia, along with the TEDActive simulcast in neighboring Whistler. TEDGlobal 2014 will be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. TED's media initiatives include TED.com, where new TED Talks are posted daily; the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as translations from volunteers worldwide; the educational initiative TED-Ed; and TEDBooks, short e-books on powerful ideas. TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world get help translating their wishes into action; TEDx, which supports individuals or groups in hosting local, self-organized TED-style events around the world; and the TED Fellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.

Our next speaker is a clinical nutritionist, educator, philanthropist, and changemaker whose life demonstrates the transformative power of resilience, service, and purpose.

Dt. Shiva Bhanot holds a Master's degree in Food and Nutrition, a Diploma in Sports Nutrition, and a Bachelor of Education. She serves as a Consultant Nutritionist and Dietician at Rotary Ambala Cancer and General Hospital, where she has spent more than a decade helping individuals improve their health and well-being.

But her impact extends far beyond nutrition. Over the years, she has dedicated herself to social causes that uplift vulnerable communities and restore dignity where it is needed most. Through educational and charitable initiatives, she has contributed to the education of more than 200 orphaned and fatherless children, supported the dignified marriages of 151 fatherless girls, and helped hundreds of families facing hardship.

Her own journey is one of determination and courage. Navigating early marriage and young motherhood while continuing her education, she transformed personal challenges into a lifelong commitment to empowering others.

A philanthropist by choice and a humanitarian by conviction, she believes that true nourishment is not limited to food—it includes hope, opportunity, compassion, and human connection.

Our next speaker is Captain Saurabh Saraswat is the founder of VerifyU, a facial‑recognition‑based identity and emergency safety app. Born and raised in Lucknow, he joined the Shipping Corporation of India at 18 and spent sixteen years sailing across the world. During this time he rose from cadet to captain, developing a conviction that life comes before all else. In 2017 he started Beaufort Marine Services and later, prompted by a conversation with his wife in 2024 about missing dementia patients, launched Beaufort IT Solutions and conceived VerifyU. The app stores critical information—blood group, medical history and emergency contacts—and uses facial recognition to make it instantly accessible. Users can scan a face to identify unconscious accident victims and send SOS alerts. Saraswat envisions every Indian registering so that lifesaving information is available when it matters most.

Meet our speaker: Arihant Chhajer
Some people follow the obvious path. Arihant Chhajer built his own.
A quiet kid from Bikaner with a Delhi University seat he couldn’t take and an IAS dream he chased through two grueling UPSC attempts — Arihant’s life refused to go as planned. So he taught himself a skill, picked up clients across the world, and got knocked down again and again. Banned three times on the platform that paid his bills. He rebuilt every single time.
Today, at 24, he’s the founder of Digmancy, a registered performance-marketing agency serving global clients and helping businesses scale through SEO and performance marketing. A top-rated freelancer on Fiverr, he has worked with clients across the world and built a reputation for turning setbacks into opportunities.
He’s also a published author of Between Thought and Feeling, a collection of poetic reflections on self-love, emotional intelligence, and personal growth, a poet, and a passionate sportsperson. Recognized among ABP’s Top 10 Leading Business Owners of 2025, he is proof that you don’t have to be just one thing.

At TEDxSeasonsStreet, Arihant takes the stage with a talk on the theme “Beyond the Obvious” — a story about failure, resilience, reinvention, and the new skill economy that’s quietly rewriting what a career can be.

An accomplished author, Dr. Toshniwal wrote Chocolate Civilisation, a fascinating exploration of the 4,000-year journey of chocolate across cultures and civilizations. A Guinness book record holder, he is also widely known as “Rakthdata”, having donated blood 81 times and continuing this life-saving mission, inspiring countless others to contribute to society through voluntary blood donation.

His work in innovation, research, business leadership, and social impact has earned him several prestigious recognitions, including the Research Excellence Award, International Business Leadership Award and Social Impact Leadership Award. He has also been honoured twice by the Governor of Maharashtra and has received recognition from distinguished leaders.

A mentor, keynote speaker, educator, and changemaker, he has inspired thousands through his work while continually challenging conventional definitions of achievement and fulfillment.

Meet our first and most supportive Sponsor and Media partner - Stay featured.

Dr. Prachetan Potadar, founder of stayfeatured.com⁠, believes that every meaningful journey deserves to be heard. Built in 2021 with no corporate backing or grand newsroom, Stay Featured emerged from a simple yet powerful vision — to create a platform where authentic stories could inspire courage, hope, and possibility.
At its core, Stay Featured was created for individuals who quietly question whether their journey matters. Through honest storytelling, the platform has consistently highlighted unsung entrepreneurs, artists, students, and changemakers whose voices are often overlooked. By focusing on resilience, self-belief, failures, and comebacks, the initiative has transformed personal narratives into sources of motivation for thousands.
Under the leadership of Dr. Prachetan Potadar, Stay Featured has published more than 2,000 original stories that resonate across different geographies, cultures, and communities. The platform has also collaborated with over 60 international conferences and 100+ global events, making storytelling accessible even for individuals without large PR budgets.
Stay Featured stands firmly on three guiding principles — authenticity, accessibility, and amplification. Rather than celebrating perfection, the platform embraces real struggles and genuine growth. It believes visibility should not depend on privilege, and that every story has the potential to create opportunities, spark conversations, and inspire transformation.
More than a media platform, Stay Featured serves as a mirror for self-belief, a microphone for unheard voices, and a reminder that every journey carries value. Through impactful storytelling, Dr. Prachetan Potadar and Stay Featured continue to prove that stories told with honesty do not simply get featured — they change lives.
