Ideas that Matter

February 26-28: TED@UCLAAnderson is a series of events designed to immerse the UCLA Anderson community in the TED experience – inviting faculty, students, and alumni to hear some of the world’s most innovative thought leaders, encouraging them to engage in dialogue, exchange ideas and develop connections. To facilitate that process, monitors around the school will live-stream the exclusive content from the TED conference, Long Beach. Students, faculty, and alumni can watch an uninterrupted simulcast of the TED conference and contribute to the discussion in real time via social media and through other means. Alumni are invited to drop in and attend panel discussions that will include the following alumni speakers: Chris Adelmann ’86, Peter Cowen ’85, Nurit Katz ’08, Jonathan Levine ’05, Terry O’Day ’04, and Peter Samuelson CERT ’84. The events will conclude with a “Campfire” on February 28 where 3 faculty and 3 students each will take the stage with a screen, a microphone, and one big thought. Don’t miss these talks at the TED campfire. Space is limited! Pre-register for the Feb. 28th Campfire event now to save your spot! RSVP Here." RSVP Here.
