“The Pursuit of Happiness”

TEDx is a group of the world’s most creative and inspiring thinkers. By forming a similar community at Nanyang Technological University, we hope to congregate innovative and socially conscious students and guests who are committed to changing the society for better. This is a unique opportunity for NTU to showcase itself as a global University and take pride in its multicultural diversity.

TEDxNTU intends to encourage the young population of NTU (Nanyang Technological University) and Singapore to see beyond academics dream bigger, aim higher and come up with better ideas. TEDxNTU will serve as a platform, which brings up innovative & creative thinkers on to the NTU community, Their talks shall encourage the NTU community to unleash their creativity and boldly come up with bigger and better ideas.

This TEDxNTU event will be exploring one of the most elusive and fuzzy mental states commonly known as ‘Happiness’. Entitled ‘Pursuit of Happiness’, the event shall feature speakers from diverse backgrounds with unique, exotic experiences. Together, they will paint a Scientific, Social and Psychological picture of ‘Happiness’ and it’s ‘Pursuit’ by drawing forth inspiration from their lives, experience & research.
