TEDx Jacobs University 2018

This year’s TEDxJacobsUniversity event is featured by the theme ‚dandelion‘. Ideas are worth nothing if they are not shared, as seeds are worth nothing if they are not dispersed. The dandelion‘s seeds have umbrella-like extensions, which make them travel to distant places, if the wind is strong enough. TEDxJacobsUniversity is our platform to spread ideas as far as possible. Once at their destination, the little parachutes can establish themselves as soon as they are nourished well enough. Be the soil and sun for the ideas we spread, be our guest at TEDxJacobsUniversity 2018! Let your mindset be changed by our talks, like the dandelion changes its color from yellow to white. For that our speaker’s ideas can flourish with and through you.
