TEDxBrno Achievement

TEDxBrno brings ideas that are worth sharing and TEDxBrno Achievement showcases ideas that are worth realizing. We are looking for ideas that have taken on concrete shape and brought something beneficial to the people of Brno, and for the individuals most responsible for their success.

TEDxBrno Achievement can be any socially beneficial project, service or event that benefits a specific location (the city, its surroundings or parts, such as a neighbourhood, street, school, park) or a specific community or group of people.

  • It brings something inspirational, original and creative
  • It improves the quality of life in areas such as culture, education, science, research, social or business innovation, the environment, civic society etc.
  • It has results that can be verified – e.g. through media documents, photos, video/film, documented evidence etc.
