TEDxBuffalo 2015
From the venue to the time, the fifth annual TEDxBuffalo changed things up. From decoding the dreams of the dying to a moving (literally) look at Earth’s 13.8-billion-year history, small acts of kindness to examining community building principles through a children’s TV show, TEDxBuffalo 2015’s speakers used their time on stage to “Illuminate” new ideas to the audience at Babeville.

TEDxBuffalo 2014, our fourth annual event, featured our fantastic speakers sharing their ideas “In Motion” with the audience (and those watching at our remote viewing sites). The day included the creator of a digital machinima opera, a Bollywood dancer and the brains behind the University Heights Tool Library, among many others. And, yes, Lloyd’s and the afternoon cupcake break were back!

The first TEDxBuffalo event filled out a long weekend in Buffalo, with 13 speakers and two performers taking the stage in front of about 100 audience members to present their ideas.
