It is all what passes through a human mind, we translate it into words, words that draw and illustrate a part of our thoughts. It influences our actions and affect our decision, those decisions that define our lives. It is powerfull, adaptable, spreads fastly and could be immortal. It is the IDEA.

Our world is full of achievements, full of events and most importantly full of ideas. That's why TEDx was created, to spread ideas worth spreading and make it more easy to transmit it from a person to another.

On our fifth event we decided to be the window opened to the world to discuss global ideas with our local perspective as we all share in this world and get inspired by all what goes through it.

هي كل ما يخطر في العقل البشري من أشياء أو حلول أو اقتراحات مستحدثة أو تحليلات. نترجمها من خلال كلمات ترسم و تجسد جزء من خواطرنا وما بداخل عقولنا. لها القدرة على التأثير على قرارتنا تلك القرارت التي تحدد حياتنا. هي قوية، قابلة للتعديل، سريعة الإنتشار و قد تكون خالدة.. إنها الفكرة.

عالمنا مليئ بالإنجازات، مليئ بالأحداث و الأهم، مليئ بالأفكار لهذا توجد منصة TEDx للمساعدة على نشر الأفكار التي تستحق النشر و تسهيل نقل الفكرة من شخص للأخر.

في عامنا الخامس لهذه المهمة قررنا ان نكون النافذة المطلة على العالم، ان ننقاش افكار عالمية بمنظورنا المحلي حيث أننا نتشارك سويا فى هذا العالم ونتأثر جميعا بأى من مجرياته.
