About

Organized along the theme of “Learning From History,” the conference will feature 10 of the country’s leading thinkers, innovators, artists, educators, historians and thought leaders who will speak about applying the innovation and ideas from the past to create a better future. Speakers will explore ideas that were ahead of their time, ideas that matter.

Some of the speakers will share stories from their personal histories and others are actual historians who will share insights about historical events. Even the refreshment break will have a historical theme – a modified afternoon tea.  In our own efforts to make history at this TEDx event, TEDxBroadStreetNY is proud to feature both a mother and daughter who will be speaking at the same event.
