TEDx NTU 2018: Greater than the Sum of its Parts

ABBEY: This is the second TEDx conducted by NTU that I attended. The theme is “Greater than the sum of its parts”. That is true as the each speaker speech and their passion is really greater than all of them. 

I really learned from Jingmei Li; the cancer detective. The famous question : Are your curing cancer? was answered with “We’re getting there” is a positive assurance that someone is doing something.
Daniel Teh is having more than 80% of his workforce comprise of people with special needs. Not that he wants sympathy but empathy to his employees.

And who would forget about the fairytale story of Violet (relationship manager)? She stressed that better connectivity is being done offline and not online.

Kudos to TEDxNTU organizers for the successful event. The program, logistics, and food is getting better and better.

WILL: Why would I love to watch TEDx? It is somewhat giving us a piece of the speaker's brain and their daily lives. Isn't it facinating? They are wrapping up the piece of their lives in few minutes!  

Cancer as all you know gave a devastating news for every family who is affected. Well, Abbey and I are not exempted on that. We felt glad that there people really dedicating their lives to study this cancer disease. Thanks Jingmei Li. 

Food rescuer, Daniel Tay, I do hope that it open up some minds that we are not only throwing away rubbish but we are throwing away tons of good food just to maintain the "quality" looking one in the grocery stores. 

Who will not be touched of Violet's story? Yes it is quite fad but the reality in every love story is that we are not living inside any social media. We must go out and get to know more the people we are dating.  

Oh one more! The former gangster, Daniel Teh, that helps people to come-up on ways in encouraging his staffs and lifting them up! 

Till the next TEDx! Thanks again NTU!
