Greensboro Group Planning TEDx Conference

Following in the footsteps of Wake Forest University, Greensboro is preparing to host an upcoming TEDx conference.

TED is an acronym that stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design

Skip Moore, the president of the Weaver Foundation and a member of Action Greensboro, is reportedly behind the event, according to an online report from the Triad Business Journal. Moore's group is still exploring topics, which will help them sort through presentations. 

The article said that the event will likely take place in late March or early April, and will likely be held in downtown Greensboro.

Wake Forest hosted a TEDx event in February, called TEDxWakeForestU, after chemistry student Lucy Lan organized the forum. Attendees heard presentations from Anthony Attala, the director of the Wake Forest University Institute for Regenerative Medicine, and Don deBethizy, the former CEO of Targacept.
