I love TEDx. These independently organised TED-inspired events happen around the world, bringing together “ideas worth spreading.” Earlier this year I attended TEDxWarwick and had a great time meeting and learning from people with a huge variety of backgrounds.

Coming up on Monday is TEDxLondon. It is being held at the Science Museum and the line-up is looking really exciting:

- Wired UK editor David Rowan will be hosting
- Melinda Gates will be presenting through a live broadcast from New York
- Wendy Hanamura, Vice-President of ViewChange
- Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, author of Half of a Yellow Sun
- Andrea Coleman, CEO of Riders for Health
- Paul Hilder, founder of OpenDemocracy and Avaaz.org

I’ll be tweeting from the event and will draft a couple blogs posts after. If you’re attending, please say hi. Wadds and I will both be there hanging about.
