About the Event
TEDxRVA 2013 featured live talks by impressive Richmonders, nationally known innovators and story tellers, and international change makers. Combine this with the enthusiastic attendees, the interactive experiences, and live energy from the “built from scratch” theater, we CREATEd a dynamic day. Little did we know how this event would tap into Richmond’s huge reservoir of passion to celebrate the region’s ingenuity and to share ideas across all disciplines. We are hooked and ready for year two!
