Netaji Subhas Institute Of Technology brings together scholars, explorers and artists in an extraordinary event called TEDxNSIT. This immersive, daylong conference shares the talents of NSIT’s speakers and performers with audiences from around the world and creates the magic that is TEDxNSIT. Thought is a free bird, but chained within the realm of one's conscious self. It needs a shot, an effort, a spark that glows, engulfing the thought process, triggering it to action. It needs some necessary ingredients to pop out. One's thought can revolutionize the world, creating the aura transforming the era. We at TEDxNSIT reframe the vision to open up your thoughts and make it happen. We present you the best ways to realize your thoughts and make it successful, go beyond the horizon, breaking the chain to create a civilized world.
