“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them” – Albert Einstein
Humanity’s pursuit of progress has been boxed in by the same modes of thought that we once used to propel it. What we need to spur revolutionary breakthroughs is a new mode of thinking—shattering new perspectives that break down old boundaries of thought.
TEDxHarvardCollege believes that innovation is the life force of this era of change, which is why we want to spark creativity in the entrepreneurs, inventors, and political minds that will shake up tomorrow’s reality. In this year’s fall conference, Incite Insight, you will have the chance to listen to internationally-acclaimed professors, speakers, and thought leaders to discover transformative ideas, as well as new ways of looking at topics that you thought you always understood.
In between these talks, TEDxHarvardCollege will also be featuring performances by the Harvard Breakers and Harvard Wushu.
