This year we come together to explore the theme of “Futures.” In a world where technology and generative AI are catalyzing unprecedented change, we stand at a crossroads of possibility and responsibility. This event is dedicated to exploring how we, as individuals and as a community, can build better futures—futures that are not only technologically advanced but also deeply human. Through a rich tapestry of exhibitions, workshops, TEDx talks, and performances, we invite you to join us in this journey of discovery and re-discovery.

Our event brings together the dynamic confluence of young minds, families, and community members, all eager to explore the symbiosis between human and artificial intelligence. Imagine stepping into a world where smart farms revolutionize agriculture, deep-sea robotics unlock the mysteries of our oceans, and intelligent medicine redefines healthcare. You and your family can engage in workshops that span the realms of science, art, and sustainable fashion, or gazing at the stars in our astronomy and space research sessions. Whether it’s through competition robotics engineering or thought-provoking talks on AI and cultural identities, there is something for everyone to ignite their curiosity and inspire their imagination.

This TEDx event is more than just a series of presentations; it’s a collaborative space where innovation meets community spirit. Together, we will explore the frontiers of architectural design, delve into the nuances of our cultural identities in the modern age, and envision sustainable futures. So bring your family, bring your friends, and come ready to be inspired. Join us as we embark on this exciting exploration of what it means to be truly human in an ever-evolving technological landscape. The future awaits, and it starts here.
