I joined a few thousand designers, founders and AI nerds for Canva’s first AI Vision event at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney (12 November 2025), and it honestly felt like a live snapshot of where human-centred AI is right now: exciting, messy, a bit scary, and full of possibility if we don’t forget who’s actually [...]
TEDxWeekendSingapore was a unique three-day event reconnecting the APAC community of TEDx organisers post-pandemic, fostering new alliances, sharing best practices, and learning from each other to continue spreading local ideas. https://youtu.be/tcnuAVggMLU Seeing familiar faces after 2.5 years, meeting new people, and sharing experiences in a warm context (both weather-wise and emotionally) made the event memorable.

#TEDxWeekendTaipei2019 surpassed all my expectations!
