Description

On May 11th 2012, at Bulandra Theater, TEDxYouth@Bucharest welcomed on stage, for the second year, young role-models, thinkers and activists - people that reshape the world. TEDxYouth@Bucharest - New World Order posed the question: "How else can success be achieved, if one chooses not to take the well worn paths?" Geza is one of the best snowboarders (multiple freeride national champion) and bikers in Romania and is well on his way to qualifying for the 2014 Olympic Games, an attempt that, if successful, will make him the first Romanian snowboarder to ever qualify for this competition. His motivation is to promote snowboarding as a sport in Romania and to be taken seriously. Snowboarding it's no longer a joke it's a real competition. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
