Project summary

We're curating a stellar lineup of incredible change-makers who are shaking the industries they're in, from business and books to physics and AI. Individuals who inspire, ground, and propel us to make things possible. https://www.tedxupv.com.

What are this project's goals and how will you achieve them?

Our goals are three-fold: (1) We aim to inspire individuals to adopt sustainable practices in their daily lives, including but not limited to dietary intake, tech/data consumption, etc.. (2) We aim to raise awareness about innovative solutions for global environmental issues, especially in the field of artificial intelligence. And (3) Community Engagement: We aim to foster a sense of community and shared responsibility for the planet and encourage collaboration and partnerships among attendees, speakers, and organizations.

We plan to achieve these goals by building a community of change makers through the live TEDx event who will then collaborate on certain projects and endeavors that relate to their respective fields.

Who is on your team and what's your track record on similar projects?

We are a team of full-time undergraduate students and I am the Lead Organizer. I have organized two TEDx events before (TEDxVillamonte 2020 and TEDxUPV 2023). This would be the third event I'll be handling, and I am confident that I have the skills and experience to see this through and make it a resounding success.

What are the most likely causes and outcomes if this project fails? (premortem)
