Two weeks a go I was invited at the first TEDxUtrecht. And I would like to share four great talks that I find worth watching.

TEDx

TEDx is one of the creations for TED’s mission, “ideas worth spreading,”, TED.com, where you can find dozens of jaw-dropping, persuasive, ingenious, inspiring and funny talks, is probably the best creation of TED. TEDx is a local , self-organized event that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. 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 TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.

In that spirit of TED’s mission I share 4 of my favorite talks at TEDxUtrecht.

Reint Jan Renes — Behavior Change – On TouchPoints And Crossroads

Stephen Anderson — From Information to Understanding: Solving the Small Data Problems

Todd Kashdan — Becoming a Mad Scientist with Your Life

Brendan Dawes — Data by itself is not enough, data needs poetry

Others that are also worth watching: Dolf Jansen, Andrei Herasimchuk, Ann Mehl and of course all other TEDxUtrecht speakers.
