Ripple effects.
That’s what TED and TEDx Talks create year after year across America, around the world and right here in Boca Raton, too.
TED began in 1984 as a conference where technology, entertainment and design converged and since then TED Talks have exploded into so much more. TEDx events are independent events within local communities that work within the framework and spirit of TED.
Seven local thought-leaders took to the Boca Raton Innovation Campus stage on May 20 for TEDxBocaRaton 2023, an event organized by Erik Mintz and Cindy Metzler.

“Life is a movie. You get to choose your character and write your script.” – Natasha Graziano
“We all search for purpose and happiness. As a society we must recognize our collective selfishness is a barrier to achieving true happiness, fulfillment and success.” – Sean Shea
“Build brands backwards. Think outside of the box. Connect with what your people enjoy.” – Michelle Grant
“Don’t be afraid to jump. To fall. To step out of your comfort zone.” – Steve Edwards
“Perfectly hidden depression is everywhere. Secrets are inside all of us. Feelings and thoughts should be shared more.” – Dr. Margaret Rutherford
“Use failure to create success in your life. When you fail, take 24 hours to deal with that emotion, feel all of the feels, and then… move on. Own it… like professional athletes watching game tape. Correct it. Then try again. Success isn’t a destination, it’s a journey. Courage. Confidence. Resilience.” – Marc Nudelberg
“We were all made for more. Keep moving. Don’t quit!” – Joy McAdams
