Joao’s story on TEDxAmazon

Finally it’s published the english translation of TEDx Talk our founder Joao did at TEDxAmazon in November 2010.

If you don’t know about the TED Talks, you MUST take some time to check out www.ted.com and listen to some inspiring stories and ideas from great entrepreneurs/pioneers/thinkers/doers from around the world…

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. (Worth checking out TEDxJovem @ Ibira website: www.tedxjovemibira.com that happened last December 4th, co-organized by Joao as well!).

In his TEDxTalk, Joao explains a bit of his story and path.. and share the lessons learned about engaging young people.

João Felipe Scarpelini was born with a habit of saving the world. At age 13, he wrote his first social project. The adults didn’t taken him seriously, of course. Today at age 24, he is dedicated to take teens seriously.
