About The event
It’s time to reimagine what’s possible — together
A TED talk is a series of short, carefully prepared talks, demonstrations and performances that are idea-focused and cover a wide range of subjects to provoke conversations that matter.

A TEDx event is a local gathering where live TED-like talks and performances are shared with the community.
Humanity Reimagined
TEDxEleftheriaSquare Live is the opportunity to watch selected talks from the TED stage way before they become available on YouTube.

It is going to be an intimate event, bringing together like-minded individuals to watch exclusive TED talks, discuss them in an informal setting over wine and light snacks.
This year this event is made possible with generous support from our partner Mellow.

Mellow is an innovative company with a strong vision that helps businesses to interact with workers in any country. We are proud to have such a partner and try to reimagine the future of humanity together.
