Tickets

Hopefully we made you eager to join us on the event in October 2012. We all have put a lot of passion and energy in organizing this event, simply in order to deliver that one big idea. To ensure the best atmosphere on the event, there is a maximum allowed attendance at the event location of 100 persons. That is why we have chosen to ask our attendees to write a motivation during the reservation process. Based on motivation we will form a diverse mix of participants. Thereafter the tickets will be assigned.

‘Refreshing Our Information Society’

The aim of the information society is to gain competitive advantage internationally through the use of IT in a creative and productive way. An information society is a society in which the creation, distribution, diffusion, use, integration and manipulation of information is a significant economic, political, and cultural activity.

 

The theme of TEDxTilburgUniversity is ‘Refreshing Our Information Society’. This will keep pace with rapid changes taking place in our information society. Standing front speakers will go deeper in fact on why our society is constantly evolving with new technologies, viewpoints and thoughts.

Venue

TiU AuditoriumTEDxTilburgUniversity will be held on October 31, 2012 in the auditorium of Tilburg University. Our auditorium has already been a podium for a lot of inspiring speakers, and is the perfect place for a prestigious event like TEDx. One of our key objectives is to offer a high quality livestream to other locations, this is perfectly possible on the infrastructure of Tilburg University.

Because of regulations TEDxTilburgUniversity aims to seat a maximum of a 100 attendees. This of course will not keep us from making the event a great success. A good location will contribute to that success, so we believe an inspiring event such as TEDxTilburgUniversity needs an inspiring location. In the whole event atmosphere, the stage setting will be a key factor.
