We don’t always have to make drastic changes to better the society. Altering one small thing around you could lead to big time enhancements. You can set the ball rolling by focusing on a series of small ideas and a measurable impact is bound to happen.
TedxKIITUniversity invites you, on the 19th of February 2017, to take one small step in community building.
Mark your calendars to witness an amalgam of ideas and inspiration as our speakers take the stage to share with you the stories of their struggles, motivations as well the path to their success. Till then, as Muhammad Ali once wrote, “Do not count the days, make the days count.”

Here we present to you, the theme of TEDxKIITUniversity 2017, "Butterfly Effect: the biggest small change".
