For those of you who are not familiar with TED and have not been following my "other" blog at DesiTech, TED stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design. TED is happening in India for the first time. TED is a conference where the really really interesting people are given an opportunity to address the amazing audience. More information about TED here and here.
TED is inviting folks to apply for the TED fellowship. As a TED fellow not only do you ride alone with the amazing brand name of TED, you also get additional benefits. Past TED fellows include Yatin Sethi (Design researcher for Ashoka-Youth Venture; Cofounder of Pankhudi Foundation which aims to benefit underprivileged children in India. India/U.S), Esther K. Chae (Actor/playwright -- her one-woman show explores a North Korean spy and the attempts to unmask her; Yale Drama alum. U.S./Korea), Taghi Amirani (Iranian physicist turned documentary filmmaker, has filmed the Taliban and NASA scientists), Sheila Ochugboju (Operational Director of Global Women Inventors and Innovators Network; science educator. Nigeria/U.K) and Mohammad Tauheed (Architect; Founder of ArchSociety.com -- an online community for architects. Bangladesh).
