TEDx

In our lives, we often travel upon untraversed paths and discover new insights that embellish our journey along the way, and seldom a ray of hope that helps us persist in this labyrinth of life and make the most out of it.

To honour these legacies of experiences and take this assortment of cathartic experiences forward our theme for this year’s event is Oasis of Odysseys. Here, numerous transdisciplinary experiences come together to empower the audience. Oasis is frequently used in its metaphorical sense: as a place of life in a hostile environment. It provides a haven from the treacherous desert.

Through this platform, the speakers on board will attempt to instil life ideals in the audience's consciousness by creating an Oasis of Experiences and knowledge that may serve as a haven for those struggling with stress, failure, demotivation, or other negative emotions. The theme can be seen as a collection of distinctive yet positive personal experiences and situations, each containing a different lesson.

Join us on this variegated Odyssey to unravel the clandestine mysteries of Life! The speakers:
