TEDx talk (english subtitles)

About 3 months ago I had the pleasure to give a TEDx talk at the University of Seville. And well, here it is now with English subtitles, for all my English speaking friends to be able to understand better. The whole TED concept is to share ideas worth spreading. So I hope somebody can get something out of mine.

But the point of this post is to thank some people that helped me do it (sometimes without maybe even knowing about it): My sister, Magdalena, and my friend Bico Bermudez. The entire amazingly bright and young TEDxUniversidaddeSevilla team (especially my coach, Rafael Chico. Yes, there is a coach for each speaker). And then, in order of appearance, my daughters Adriana and Carlota. My friend and longtime partner Alain Uceda (who gave a beautiful shape to the title, as he usually does to many things). My masters at Chiat/Day (Rick BoykoNick CohenTy Montague, Ann Lemon, Paula Dombrow, John Butler, Mike ShineGraham Clifford, Tom Scherma and of course, especially Bill Hamilton, wherever you are). Christian Escribà and Hans Gissinger (for having me at the “Tartas” project). Javier SánchezSuha Shatila and Mr. Nabeel (for having me at the Katara Plaza project). Valmir Leite and Irene Knoth (for having me in our Brasil project). And of course, Esther (for that wonderful present you gave me).

Thank you all for helping me shape some ideas that I hope are worth spreading.

Note: Until TEDx publishes the subtitles on YouTube, the only way to show them is by embedding an html code (on my blog)

    1. Thank you so much Rasha. I’m flattered by your words 🙂
      And how could I say no to helping you after our first conversation? I had to be truthful to my TED talk words.
      Your passion, talent and determination are a source of inspiration. And today, after almost a year of conversations, work sessions, and presentations, I’m filled with excitement as we navigate this challenging and very rewarding path together.
