Having announced ‘Adventurous Minds’ as the theme for its 2016 event, TEDxMelbourne has now divulged a thrilling lineup of guest speakers and esteemed chefs for its seventh running.
Through this original premise, the showcase will aim to inspire the Melbourne community in the areas of technology, innovation and design and is set to surpass last year’s ‘The Stuff of Dreams’ themed occasion by way of motivation, education and stimulation.
Award-winning space craft designer and scramjet engineer Professor Michael Smart will lead a bill featuring intrepid youthful adventurer Jade Hameister, architect and academic Dr Augustin Chevez, celebrated business leader and transgender community advocate Joanna Ferrari.
Travis “The Bucket List Guy” Bell will also be there alongside social entrepreneur Jan Owen, Melbourne creative editor and writer Sam Doust and business leader Steve Vamos who is said to have changed the Australian technology landscape forever.
TEDxMelbourne 2016 will launch at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre on Wednesday August 3. Tickets available via the TEDxMelbourne website.
