In the midst of such inspiring and special days, we continue our throwback journey to last summer and the Open Skies, Open Minds community event.

While we think we are living in the present, the objects we use, the clothes we wear or the services we buy, have been around for decades. In this talk, Tammy Lovin makes her case for adjusting our lifestyle, consumer behavior and the choices we make, to better suit the world we are living in. Now.

Enjoy this progressive speech from Tammy, multidisciplinary designer and art installations creator. With a formal education in product design and a masters in materials, Tammy developed tech devices while working for Bitdefender and was part of design team of renowned designer Karim Rashid in New York. An we were so proud to have her on our summer stage at TEDxBucharest.

Happy Easter, TEDsters! Now taking a throwback journey to last summer and Open Skies, Open Minds community event. While preparing to share these days safe in our homes, let’s enjoy some inspo from our last summer speakers.

Bianca shares her story of understanding how to better control her life, career and how that shapes her present initiatives. She is a fervent believer in people’s innate goodness and in their ability to move mountains, should they find their best place and do what they love. She’s enabling people to be their best by her practice in corporate HR, through coaching and most importantly through her work at Jobful, the first gamifying recruitment platform in Romania where applicants are more than just numbers and CVs but are people who have the chance to prove their abilities online. She’s also a passionate promoter of yoga and its practices, after having spent one month in India learning about what it means to be in perfect balance with all your thoughts and actions.

Happy Easter, TEDsters! Now taking a throwback journey to last summer and Open Skies, Open Minds community event. While preparing to share these days safe in our homes, let’s enjoy some inspo from our last summer speakers.

The past few years have been monumental for women. They took the lead in so many conversations and instances.
While we as an organization believe in a balanced exploration of ideas from both women and men, we though dedicate this Easter post to Cristiana Oprea and her awesome Open Skies, Open Minds talk: Breaking the Glass Ceiling for Women in Motor Sports. Cristiana’s dream of changing the world as an architect and urban planner gradually transformed into changing the world of motor sports and its views on women in this field, fueled by her newly found passion of competitive rally driving. In this talk, she explores the hardships of women rally drivers, lessons learned and how we can follow our dreams, as crazy as they may sound.

Happy Easter, TEDsters! Now taking a throwback journey to last summer and Open Skies, Open Minds community event. While preparing to share these days safe in our homes, let’s enjoy some inspo from our last summer speakers.

Staying safe at home means we get more time to travel with our imagination. From the coasts of the US to Ulan Bator, from the Baikal Lake to the Black Sea, Vlad Grigore tells the story of how adventures shape our lives. An avid explorer, Vlad takes us from crossing the frozen Baikal Lake on a motorcycle to rowing in the open ocean. In 2012, he founded Today You Can Do Anything, a community that helps others achieve their dreams and overcome their limits. He experienced The Mongol Rally – one of the Top 10 automotive endurance races and also crossed Baikal Lake on a motorcycle for 1000 km at -35 degrees C. He decided to bring the ocean rowing experience in Romania and created the Black Sea Rowing project, the only ocean rowing boat at the Black Sea.
