TEDxDelft 2015

TEDxDelft 2015 took place on February 27 at the TU Delft Aula Congress Centre, where a large audience gathered for a day dedicated to innovative thinking, inspiring talks and live performances. The event brought together a diverse group of speakers and performers who shared ideas and research at the intersection of technology, humanity and creativity.

The theme of the 2015 edition, “Let’s Make Things Beta,” encouraged participants to turn ideas into action. The concept highlighted the importance of experimentation, reminding the audience that every successful idea once started as an imperfect first version. Through their talks, speakers demonstrated how they developed their own ideas, inspiring visitors to prototype, test and improve their own concepts.

In addition to the talks, the event featured performances and interactive activities that created opportunities for discussion and engagement throughout the day. TEDxDelft 2015 became a platform for sharing ideas, sparking conversations and motivating the audience to take the inspiration from the event and transform it into real-world action.
