Kosasih Sisters Selling Changing the World

Vanessa, Jessalyn, and Vynnicia Kosasih are winners changing the world. This spring they won Moonshot Pirates innovation on food global competition from hundreds of teams in 6 continents. As TEDxVail's licencee and co-curator, I saw their fabulous 1-minute final presentation and watched their Big Idea as it went through the finals to win. In offering them a TEDxVail virtual speaking spot, the sisters jumped right on it. When I asked how they communicated to improve their project on protein based sweeteners, they chuckled admitting they all live in the same house and they see each other all the time. That proximity is a real advantage. They know each other's heart. They know intimately how each thinks. They feel easily how to make the next best step.

You can see their creative talk at TEDxVailYouth this April 13 from 2-5pm MT North America. You can grab your free online spot at TEDxVail.com.

In case you are curious about the backstage cues to make an online event with live on stage speakers as well as 2 virtual Talks (the three sisters from Indonesia as well as Annie from Greece on AI) here is what our cue to cue looks like:
