Event description

One good gauge as to how well you speak, is to try and qualify to present at a TED talk. Just view any TED talk (on YouTube) and you will be impressed by how articulate and captivating these presenters are. Yet, for the 18 minutes they are on stage, there are many conditions set by the TED talk organisers. After all, TED talk is their highly-coveted brand.
