TEDxVGEC is an independently organized TED event by Vishwakarma Government Engineering College, Chandkheda (VGEC Chandkheda). VGEC is not merely an engineering college - it is an institution that unleashes students' potential and places them in front of competitions and challenges. Entertaining it for the first time under the banner name of VGEC, TEDxVGEC imbues the progressive spirit found in the students of VGEC and is desperate to spread its enticement all over the region waiting beyond there. What is going to start as a small initiative, is expected to gain momentum the upcoming years. With this event being organized for the first time in VGEC Chandkheda, we are exhilarated about the opportunities with us. TEDxVGEC would surely be a community where the deep spark on an innovation sets its movement of purpose and anticipation.
