TedXDayton Speakers Announced

September 8, 2016 By Dayton Most Metro

tedx-dayton-marvTEDxDayton organizers have released the speaker lineup for the 2016 signature event, which will take place on Friday, Oct. 14, at the Victoria Theatre in Dayton. As in previous years, organizers anticipate a fast sell-out. Only 16 percent of unsold tickets remain.

“There’s a lot of energy building in our community,” said TEDxDayton co-chair Ron Rollins. “People want to have challenging conversations about where we’re headed, and they’re looking for new ideas. This event brings new perspectives to the table and asks questions we haven’t thought to ask.”

Nineteen speakers will present on this year’s theme—SEARCH. “This year’s theme really captures the spirit of TED,” said TEDxDayton chair Diane Farrell. “We attract an active audience. They inquire. They investigate. When they enter the theatre on Oct. 14, they won’t just be expecting entertainment, they’ll be seeking information, inspiration, and connection—and with this year’s powerful speakers, that’s what they’re going to find.”

Speakers include:
Salma Albezreh, Student, Morton Middle School
Tyler Back, CEO, Mitosis & Meiosis
Joe Deer, Professor and Musical Theatre Initiative Director, Wright State University
Neenah Ellis, General Manager, WYSO
Scot Ganow, Attorney, Faruki Ireland & Cox P.L.L.

Ambassador Tony Hall, Executive Director, Alliance to End Hunger
Ryan Ireland, Publicity and Marketing Coordinator, Greene County Public Library

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

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. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
