GU BIN

My name is Binbin. I come from Shanghai. I have been 10-year curator and executive director in the field of culture and education. After 10 years of working, I went back to campus to continue my further study. I intended to apply for the master degree in Art History Department of CAA ( China Academy of Art). I got the first place in the entrance exam which I major in. Now I am waiting for the admission letter. At the same time, I am a subeditor on Channel ZheJiang Online (http://www.zjol.com.cn ). Furthermore, the Chinese representative office of IEACI (International Education Alliance for Creative Industries ) appointed me as a liaison officer. In my own life, I am passionate about the Innovation of Art, Technology and Commerce. So I am eager to meet different people to share their innovative ideas.

I am passion about communicating with people of different backgrounds. It is so excited for me to hear different stories and receive new ideas from them.

There is a saying that 'If you have one apple in your hand and I have one , we exchange them, we still only have one apple in our hands.However, if you have an idea and I have one, we exchange them, we both have two ideas. ' This is why I love communicating with others, and this is why I am so passion about TED and TEDx, because I firmly believe that great ideas need to be shared and spread among people. In this way can the people be enlightened and new great ideas can be generated.

Art history

I knew TED a long time ago and really passion about it. I came up with the idea of hosting a TEDx event in Hangzhou ever since I came across a professor who hosted a TEDx event . Honestly I do not have much experiences in organizing a TEDx event. However, I do have experiences of hosting other types of events. Also, our team members have experts in this field.
