NO MORE TICKETS BUT STILL WANT TO ATTEND?
Thank you all for your support! TEDxPickeringStreet 2017 is officially sold out! HOWEVER! If you didn't grab your tickets in time, fear not, you have some options!
1) Wait-list/walk-in on the day itself: In the event that there are cancellations or no-shows, you can pay on the spot! We will let people in for as long as there is still space.
2) On-site simulcast: We are simulcasting the event in our activity room that's next to the conference room! So you can still join us for the day and mingle with the participants and speakers at the after-party! (PS: If you get the after-party tickets and attend the simulcast, and space opens up later during the program, you'll be rewarded for your patience by being let in for a small top-up fee of $5!)
3) Live-stream at home and attend the after-party: Catch the live-stream from the comfort of your own home and join us for the after-party as we continue the great conversations from before!
THE Qs | 何谓 “全商”？
IQ, EQ, AQ, MQ, CQ…There are many different types of quotients and intelligence in this world.
We here at TEDxPickeringStreet seek to embark on a journey to explore the many ‘Qs’ in life through the discovery of new ideas and perspectives.
We hope that in doing so, we can help our participants grow, not only as individuals, but as members of society, and as a global citizen. There is a 'Q' for everyone at every level, so…
#BeQurious #TheQs #TEDxPickeringSt
我們今年活動的主題為 "全商" (The Qs);
研究报告指出：
人必須 全面發展十商，才能有真正完善的自我．
世上真的只有十商嗎？我們是不是需要具備其他的’商’呢？我們希望能夠透過不同種的’商’

[About TEDxPickeringStreet]
Inclusiveness is the core value and idea of TEDxPickeringStreet. We believe that great ideas can be found everywhere and anywhere and in every person, and that language should not be a barrier to the sharing of great ideas.
Hence we named our event after William A. Pickering, the first British officer who could speak and write Mandarin and acted as the bridge between the Chinese and British during Singapore’s days as a colony.
We also aim to not only be linguistically inclusive but to do so on every level of our event. we want to connect people, across different race, cultures, countries and most importantly, station. Because great things happen when people meet and connect.
Ultimately though, we just want everyone to have fun. Hopefully, we’ll be known as the TEDx event that takes ourselves the least seriously.
