The TED story

I learned about TED by Eduardo Santoro, a professor of social psychology who is a member of the second promotion of psychologists of Venezuela, has 70 years and is one of the most active men I know, continually reviews TED and is current with most conferences, and thanks to him i first got the inspiration to implement the spirit of ideas worth spreading, then the urge to offer something to my student community. Then i contacted Octavio Rodriguez, who participated in the 2012 TEDxUSB and thanks to his support i learned the concept of TEDx, that was what inspired me to bring to my university an event that would rescue the values ​​of the first academic study of the country house, the Central University of Venezuela.
