Who organise TEDx Liège?

TEDx Liège is organised by Gotoro. It is a non profit organisation made up of 35 volunteers. We share our passion for entrepreneurship. For that, we oragnise more than 40 events each year. We have 3 goals:

  1. inspiring
  2. action driving
  3. and networking

Is TED elitist ?

No, everyone is welcome.

Sometimes TEDx events are seen as elitist. People think you need to be CEO or partner at a high profile company to get in. That is not true! On the contrary, we fear we are missing out. Our goal is to share inspiring stories with you no matter your social, ethnical or professionnal background.

We also do our best to keep prices as low as possible. All organisers are volunteers and unpaid. The prices cover only in part the venue, food and our awesome audiovisual technicians.
