🌍 TEDxVail NEXT Global Watch Party—A Grand Xperiment! 🚀

🎤604 registered. 97% showed up. 💥 Now THAT’S commitment! 🌍

TEDxVail NEXT was more than a watch party—it was a global ignition. 14 bold speakers, meticulously coached, crafted their own TEDxVail Talks using the OBVIO Dashboard (I designed, redesigned, and rereredesigned with the speakers' input and staffed by Kate Lapides' graphics, with Kate’s epic final redesigned panels). 💡✨

The stage? Vilar PErforming Arts Center went virtual a few years ago on ohyay which was sold. So Kat Lee had to find a replacement. She did. Ohyaya transformed into Poppup, thanks to her relentless and genius search. 👏The audience? 🎤 A powerhouse of minds from 5 continents, uniting in curiosity and action for a more peaceful Earth. 🌎

This was more than an event—it was an Xperiment in connection, creativity, and courage. ❤️ Thank you to EVERYONE who showed up, listened, shared, and made this moment unforgettable. 🎉

What’s NEXT? Stay tuned… because when we come together like this, the possibilities are limitless. 🔥

Enjoy the playlist...

Rebecca Kormos: #climatechange #conservation #globalissues #policy #sustainability #women As the author of Intertwining, Rebecca curated the women in conservation leaders who worked for nearly a year to deliver their TEDxVAil Talks at the January 20, 2025 Global Watch Party. Way to go Rebecca! As you can read to solve the climate crisis is multidimensional, intergenerational, and intercontinental. In other words, we are all in this together.
