My passion for entrepreneurs has led me to being a panelist for various pitching competitions. This passion fuels my interest in the power of ideas. One idea, if put into action, can lead to phenomenal success. TEDxPretoria is simply the spark, the possibility of ideas are endless and that is why I am part of it.

Thabo and Bianca are podcast producers by day, they step out at night preying watch over lameness and ineffective storytelling. Equipped with little more than their arsenal of ideas, they see to it that mediocrity has no place in TEDxPretoria.

As a marketer, my job is to make things look good. Which is a pretty easy job when the thing you are marketing is ideas that speak for themselves, backed by a firecracker team.
