A TEDx event brings together independent, locally organized TED-style events around the world, which share live-talks and performances with the community. The events are fully independently planned and coordinated by the local organisers and each event has a unique design, but all of them have features in common. This is what the “x” after TED refers to. TEDxSepsiszentgyörgy is also an event of this type, through which we aim to approach topics, that are different from the usual perspective, and through which we tend to pass over in our everyday life, or we do not even think about them. We want our environment to gain insight into new, fascinating topics.

Executive Director

Laura Popeea

During my 19-year old career in corporations, working in sales management, in middle management positions.

I am a passionate person about people and personal development. I have had the chance to meet and interact with a lot of people and develop and evolve continuously during my 19-year old career in corporations, working in sales management, in middle management positions. In July 2018, after 4 years of volunteering in the roles of founding member and member of the Board of the Brașov Community Foundation, I have chosen to take on the role of executive director, thus benefiting from my expertise in community facilitation and development. This decision and my involvement thus far in the life of my community, gives me great meaning and fulfillment, as the impact of what I do is a Greater Good than my personal one. I am particularly attracted to fundraising, cause it means creating bridges between the needs and existing resources in each community, which may be financial, relational or know-how related.

Why should You participate on a TEDx event?

The purpose of TEDxSepsiszentgyörgy is to give voice for creative, forward-looking thoughts that give impetus and inspiration both in professional and personal life, and to arouse the interest of the participants regarding their views and to aspire them to formulate questions about the world in which we live. By promoting and following the spirit of the TEDx events, which are organized independently locally, we believe that Ideas worth spreading – and they will lead us all, in the direction of a better future. At the same time, we also believe that inspiring stories are all around us, we just need to create the right resources and interface face to share them. With our event we want to provide this interface.

The talks will be made available on our website after the event, and they can also be viewed on the TEDx Talks YouTube channel. But you should know, that the live TEDx experience is not conveyed by the presentation listened online.
