On September 20th, 2014 Limassol (Cyprus) is preparing to host its very own TEDx event – TEDx Limassol, proudly supported by Prestigio.

TED is a non - profit organisation devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks. TED began its life in 1984 as a conference where technology, entertainment and design converged. Today it covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 languages. The independently run TEDx events help share some of these ideas in communities around the world.

The first TEDx Limassol event, is said to draw its inspiration from the extroverted, multinational, spontaneous, and enticing nature of the seaside town. With the majority of attendees expected from abroad, TEDx Limassol is imagined as an evolution from the so-called ‘norm’ of professional gatherings; reflecting, rather, the cosmopolitanism of Limassol. The organisers envision the event as contributing to the position of Limassol as an epicenter of scientific and technological developments, and innovation in the south east Mediterranean, thus bolstering its international image and its strategic position in both a business and touristic level.

“We at Prestigio are very pleased to be in partnership with TEDx, as TED (Technology, Entertainment and Design) is in line with our company`s aim to support fresh thinking and innovation across the community and business. This is the first year of our partnership and both TEDx and Prestigio see great synergies in this link up”, marked Siarhei Kostevitch, founder and CEO of ASBIS group and Chairman of Prestigio.
