We are just a few moments away from the start of the first TedxBinnenhof ~ Catwalk for Innovation. I am lucky to be attending this event: I won a ticket via the company World Of Minds.

About TedxBinnenhof
“We want to shine the spotlight on the innovative powers of the Netherlands. To celebrate innovation and ideas, inspire, and show the way forward to a better future. That is what TEDxBinnenhof is about – it’s the place for the passionately curious, can-do visionaries and fearless mavericks.” (source)

The Idea
TEDxBinnenhof Catwalk for Innovation will feature ten inspiring talks on groundbreaking ideas from the Netherlands that can help tackle global challenges such as pollution, health care costs, loss of biodiversity, climate change and scarcity of natural resources, food and energy. The talks on TEDxBinnenhof demonstrate innovative Dutch ideas that will inspire to solve some of society’s problems. TEDxBinnenhof will host simulcasts (livestream events) at various locations in the Netherlands and at Dutch embassies worldwide.
