TEDxDirigo: Engage
After our events we often hear a common question: What do we do now? Our answer: Engage. We have asked Jan Kearce, executive director of the Institute for Civic Leadership, to guest curate a very special spring event for Maine, TEDxDirigo: Engage. We will hear from a dynamic range of innovators from across Maine who have rolled up their sleeves and made a difference. They choose to Engage, converting their ideas and passion into action and impact. Come and explore how we can collectively and individually Engage to solve today’s and tomorrow’s problems in inspiring ways.

TEDxLive
A mix of TEDxDirigo friends old and new got together one rainy afternoon at the end of the winter to watch a livestream of TED2011: The Rediscovery of Wonder. The event fostered some good conversation and comraderie. There was also more than enough pizza to go around. We’re looking forward to other opportunities to share such huge TED experiences with Maine.

TEDxDirigo: Frontier
In the same spirit of the state motto, our inaugural event lead the way with ideas worth spreading from Maine’s brightest innovators and change-makers. Our theme, Frontier, payed homage to Maine’s continued legacy of being a boundary between what man previously thought he knew about himself and discovering what being human truly means in the midst of glorious wilderness.
