Theme: Once Upon A dream

This event occurred on

What is it about dreaming that is so deeply rooted with humans that every story, every journey and every voyage begins with what you call “Dream”
It would be a tragedy if we as a race gave up what it means to crave, to yearn and to strive. Yes, early man strived for food, shelter, clothing and continuity, but when he had time, he also observed rivers, wind, the sky and stars. He charted courses and planned migrations and invented tools; he built boats, made maps and on their foundation, eventually made civilizations. Our early man; his feet on the ground, his eyes on the sky; what if he stopped dreaming?
It’s a whole new world when the dream you have dreamed of becomes your reality, when you are quite literally “Living the dream”. For some this world offers the treat that they deserved after striving all along the journey. While some are not born under lucky stars. But all is not lost, there are some events which when encountered act as catalyst to your realization. Nevertheless, everyone has their own story of their journeys and all of them begin with a vision, an aspiration...A DREAM.
Who knows, this event might be your catalyst and might help you approach what was your “Once upon a dream”

TEDxPCCOER is a half-day online event. Our goal is to bring forth the local heroes to give talks that are idea-focused, to nurture learning, inspiration and to invoke conversations that matter.
