In 2013 Larry & Marilyn Klaben lead the team that brought the TEDx talks to Dayton. More than 30 engaging speakers and performers took the stage during to unleash ideas that would Infuse and Inspire.
According to Dayton Daily News reporter Dave Larsen “More than 900 people attended the fast-paced, day-long forum, which featured more than 30 local speakers” who challenged us to follow the fear, find our voice, question the equation, get over ourselves, build memories, imagine a world with hate, embrace our past , move through the shadows, rewire our brains, adopt and date our city.
In 2014 there was a second sell out event, that promised to Explore, Exchange and Excite. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, we were asked if we were OK with ourselves or prisoners of shame, seeing our reality, or creating something timeless, exploring bias and creating successful collaboration, if we have to be a jerk to win or were having an alien experience were we stopping the silence, embracing our driveway moments and wondering if glitter makes everything better.
