A lot has changed since TED was last held at the Vancouver Convention Centre three years ago. We return to celebrate a new era.
The future beckons with extraordinary possibilities in medicine, artificial intelligence, clean energy, the ways we work, the ways we learn, and the fundamental economic and social systems that underpin everything else. Experience selected TEDx 2022 sessions in the library’s Welsh Hall from April 11 to 14, streamed LIVE from the Vancouver Convention Centre. Over 70 speakers are scheduled to appear on the main stage to present talks, music, performance, and comedy.
