    (For Chinese Version-中文活动页面请点击:http://www.huodongxing.com/event/2308665401300

    What will be your first thought when mentioning ZhujiangNewTown? As one of the biggest Central Business Districts in the Southern part of China, ZhujiangNewTown has gone through a long way to grow and establish: the doubts and misunderstandings from the citizen was raised at its first build-up. However, what we see now is that ZhujiangNewTown has become a landmark of modern Guangzhou and more importantly, an asset for the new generation.

     

    When more and more outside culture comes into Guangzhou, ZhujiangNewTown becomes a reflection of Guangzhou’s future. So what are tags and characters when we think about Guangzhou?  The 2015 TEDxZhujiangNewTown Conference will be held onSunday Dec 13 2015 (13:30-17:30) atthe W Hotel Guangzhou, hoping to discover the answer from each citizen. The event theme is ‘ Symbiosis’ – which means there is no industries or culture could exist without the communities surrounding. Symbiosis can be both harmful and controversial. But luckily, the diversity of Guangzhou shows the beneficial symbiosis is happening in this city. Eight professional speakers from different industries will join this event to present the interesting ideas rooted in Guangzhou.

     

    We hope this event can show you a different perspective, reveal the complication in its culture and restate its future to the world. Come and join us!

    Zhaoze

    Zhaoze is a Chinese indie band based in Guangzhou, also known as the leading band of Post-Rock and star rock band in Lingnan area. They play frequently in music festivals such as Midi and Strawberry and some other live houses. As the first band combines guqin(Chinese seven-stringed zither) and rock music together, they successfully compromises the merits of Chinese historical culture and the passion of rock music. Even comparing with rock bands all over the world, it is fair to say they had a style of their own.


    What is TED?

    TED is an annual event where some of the world's leading thinkers and doers are invited to share what they are most passionate about. "TED" stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design -- three broad subject areas that are, collectively, shaping our future. In fact, the event is broader still, showcasing ideas that matter in any discipline. Attendees have called it "the ultimate brain spa" and "a four-day journey into the future." The diverse audience of CEOs, scientists, creatives, philanthropists is almost as extraordinary as the speakers, who have included Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon and Sir Richard Branson.


    What is TEDxZhujiangNewTown?

    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share in a TED-like experience. Aiming to trigger in-depth discussion in social issues,  creative industries, city development and Guangzhou, the establishment of TEDxZhujiaNewTown will bring together the city elites in Southern China and encourage the thinking and sharing for creative ideas. We are here to make Guangzhou a more interesting city!
