A group of visionary people saw it fit to have out African stories out there in the world, hence TEDxParklands was born.
Their theme captures the vision of giving Nairobi a platform to explore her ideas, dreams and ambitions.
The event is powered by a team of visionary young leaders, skilled in different areas and industries, all working on a voluntary basis to grow the TED and TEDx community in Kenya starting from its capital city, Nairobi.
The May 4th event had a group of revolutionary speakers that are changing the dynamics in the country including popular Youtube girl group Over 25 and Isaac Hunja.
Here are some pictures from the ‘must attend’ event.
