Today Bilbao is a changed city. Nevertheless, we live in a changing world. Large cities, products of an industrial age, are giving way to a new kind of urban center operating in a knowledge-based economy. Our world is becoming a global village in which ideas are available anywhere, anytime. A flexible and dynamic flow of products and capital crosses all kinds of countries and borders.

TEDxBilbao is, in this context, an appropriate ground to help ”Ideas Worth Spreading” driven to creatively improve our collective future. Our general claim is “IMAGINE” and the theme chosen for this second edition is, what we believe one of the foundations needed to address this changing future, DESIGN.

We see TEDxBilbao as a inspiring platform: Before, During, After event

UPDATE: Bilbao has just been shortlisted with Cape Town and Dublin for World Design Capital 2014! http://ow.ly/5nd7e #imagine #design
