TEDx IIT-H to organise talk on ‘risk-taking’ in life
A global TEDx virtual event organised by students of IIT-H promoting speakers from various domains will share their experience of risk-taking
Sangareddy: “It’s time to stop playing safe, let’s play unsafe,” says TEDxIIT-H (Indian Institute of Technology-Hyderabad). A global TEDx virtual event organised by students of IIT-H promoting speakers from various domains will share their experience of risk-taking.
TEDx IIT-H is a group of highly motivated students from various disciplines who promise to provide the audience with a memorable experience at a global event featuring world-class speakers from a plethora of fields. They are dedicated to bringing together people and organisations with the shared purpose of promoting extraordinary ideas. This year the event is based on the theme “Let’s Play (un)safe!” with TEDxIIT-H. It is scheduled for March 21 from 10 am to 4PM.
Risk-taking and playing unsafe is being redefined in the present world context. Breathing life through the pandemic era, which is just as facing a war-like situation from all fronts, people are pushed to their extremes to come and rethink their comfort positions. Some time risks come crashing in the life uninvited, while other times you venture out towards it. Learning to play unsafe is the only safest paradigm.
List of speakers for TEDxIIT-H 2021:
Eminent speakers-Vimal Chandran (Visual Artist)-Aruna M. Bahuguna (Indian Police Service – Director General of Police [Retired])-Kamal Nayak (Founder & Director of Good Universe NGO)-Meghnad (Associate Editor at Newslaundry) -Pooja Dagli (Co-founder of Robin Hood Academy)-Anahita Sarabhai( Performer, Activist, Poet, Founder Director of QueerAbad)

Highlighting the importance of this event at TEDxIIT-H, Varun Perumalla, Overall Head and Licensee of TEDxIITHyderabad, said “The idea is to inspire people to redefine the concept of “taking risks.” We’ve adapted ourselves to playing safe so much that it’s time we start playing “(Un)Safe” to explore what lies ahead of us. These speakers are living examples of what all we can achieve by choosing to risk.”
