The TED story

Innovation is the specific instrument for entrepreneurship, the act that endows resources with a new capacity to create wealth. To become an evangelist of innovation I could not find a better platform than TED. It’s a world where nobody looks for a fashion in boutique or history in museum but instead explores history in a hardware store and fashion in an airport. TED is not confined to single subject but it understands that diversity is the art of thinking differently, together, from technology talks to social issues. SITM is blessed with many upcoming imaginative minds.The motive of Organising Ted event in SITM is not to enlighten the students to survive but to conquer. Inspiration will be the driving force for students to believe in oneself and make a difference in their life because for centuries there were man who took steps, built new roads, armed with nothings but their own vision. It will stimulate idea-generation and help them walk the road to success.

Things you might not know

Photography is my one passion that nobody knows. I try to find something interesting in an ordinary place .It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.
