TEDxDago - The Creative Melting Pot in Bandung

TEDxDago 2023 was held on July 29 2023 at the Cornerstone Auditorium Paskal Hyper Square by presenting 100 invited audience members selected based on the best youth in Bandung. Some of the audiences who attended this series of TEDxDago activities were the Pandawara Group, Camillia Zara, Ansellma Putri, Andika Putra, and many more. By presenting 100 of Bandung's best youth, TEDxDago hopes that together we can make Bandung a creative city because the youth are involved in making an impact, especially for the city of Bandung. This is because the 100 invitees who attended TEDxDago were not only influencers in the entertainment sector, but also invited young entrepreneurs, one of the Forbes 30 Under 30, athletes, musicians, to youth who are actively engaged in social, political, and even technological fields. 

TEDxDago 2023 was filled with 4 speakers, Vitayanti Wardoyo, I Nyoman Nuarta, DJ Arie, to Ben Mulia. Not only speakers, TEDxDago was also enlivened by cabaret performances from Arthadelion, Angklung Udjo art performances, and also Tiara Effendy. Apart from the series of Talks, TEDxDago also presented 2 exhibitions which have their own meanings. The first exhibition was filled with a personal approach to each audience by presenting goods that have their own meaning for each audience, and the second exhibition showcased exhibitions that collaborate with several local brands that participate in supporting a series of TEDxDago activities such as Vector Motors, Afecto Coffee, Burger Chill, Palugada Streetwear, and many more. 

Later it is hoped that the public will be able to enjoy a series of Talks which will be uploaded on the TEDx Talks YouTube account. TEDxDago has also planned to make its activities an annual event where there will be TEDxDago 2.0 in 2024.
