The theme of this year's TEDxOporto is "Das tripas coração", which very losely translates to "Go the Extra Mile". This is a way to help shake people's attitudes up and perceptions towards the huge recession we are currently going through. We will have testimonies from people who have winning ideas, who will share them with us as thinkers, entrepreneurs and people who made the difference against all odds.
