Press release -

Svensk korruption ett av tre fokus på årets andra TEDxStockholmSalon

En av tre utvalda att leverera ett TEDx Talk vid årets andra event är Louise Brown som i dagarna släpper boken "Den skenhelige svensken - korruption utan konsekvenser" där Louise Brown granskar den svenska korruptionen och får oss att revidera bilden av oss själva som västvärldens Bror Duktig.

Louise Brown flyttade till Peking 1994 och har jobbat med affärsutveckling i vitt skilda kulturer och bolag i drygt femton år. Hon har intresserat sig alltmer för bolagsstyrning och korruptionsförebyggande. Efter 15 år utomlands kom hon hem till Sverige – ett av världens minst korrupta länder – och upplevde att vår inställning till korruption var skenhelig.

Detta event, öppet för allmänheten, har temat "Think again" och presenterar tre talare samt en artist live på Summit Grev Ture den 24 mars 17.30-20.30. Det blir årets andra, efter "The New Diplomacy" i januari som inledde året, fick stor internationell uppmärksamhet och där bl a Carl Bildt gjorde TEDx-debut.  

Mer information och biljetter hittar du på TEDxStockholm.com

Ett begränsat antal biljetter släpps vid midnatt tisdag 11 mars.

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, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. 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.)

About TED

TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a conference in California 1984, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with many initiatives.

At a TED conference, the world's leading thinkers and doers are asked to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes or less. TED speakers have included Roger Ebert, Sheryl Sandberg, Bill Gates, Elizabeth Gilbert, Benoit Mandelbrot, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Brian Greene, Isabel Allende and former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

On TED.com, talks from TED conferences are shared with the world for free as TED Talks videos. A new TED Talk is posted every weekday. Through the Open Translation Project, TED Talks are subtitled by volunteers worldwide. Through our distribution networks, TED Talks are shared on TV, radio, Netflix and many websites.

The TEDx initiative grants free licenses to people around the world to organize TED-style events in their communities with TED Talks and live speakers. Selected talks from these events are also turned into TED Talks videos.

The annual TED Prize grants $1 million to an exceptional individual with a wish to change the world. The TED Fellows program helps world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities. TED-Ed creates short video lessons by pairing master teachers with animators, for use in classroom instruction or independent learning.
