The Sutherland Shire will host its first full-scale public TEDx event when TEDxSutherland launches at Inaburra School in Bangor. This landmark event introduces the globally recognised TEDx experience to the Shire community for the very first time, offering a new platform for world-class ideas, storytelling, and innovation right in the heart of the local community.
With the theme THRIVE, the inaugural event will explore what it means for individuals, communities, and the planet to flourish amid rapid global change. The lineup features an exceptional group of speakers whose impact reaches far beyond their fields. Among them are two-time world champion surfer Tom Carroll; parenting expert Gen Muir; NRL Cronulla Sharks captain Cameron McInnes; and extreme climate scientist Professor Sarah Perkins-Kirkpatrick.
As the first event of its kind in the Sutherland Shire, TEDxSutherland aims to ignite curiosity, spark conversation, and empower the community to think boldly about the future. The full-day program will feature inspiring talks, performances, and connection opportunities, all delivered by a volunteer team committed to bringing meaningful ideas to the region.
Further speaker announcements, program updates, and ticket details can be found on the TEDxSutherland website and social media channels. Keep up to date with TEDxSutherland on Facebook and Instagram.
