世界的复杂远超我们的想象，不论在生活还是在社会关系中，我们都有太多需要与之拥抱的复杂性。以开放的心态面对它、理解它，并且采取行动，才有可能将世界推向我们想要的地方。

TEDxGuangzhou 2020 大会精彩全揭晓，我们怀着期待和热情，邀请每一位对这个世界的复杂性抱有好奇心和探索欲的你，来到现场，与我们一起拥抱复杂性！

The complexity of the world is far beyond our imagination. From our daily lives to international relationships, we have too much complexity to embrace. Yet we have to face and understand it with an open mind, and take action. That’s how we may push the world's future towards where we want it to be.

TEDxGuangzhou 2020 conference has now been unveiled. With exictement and enthusiasm, we invite everyone who is curious and adventerous to explore the complexity in the world to come to the conference, and embrace the complexity with us!

新闻、教育、城市规划、环保…… 在我们已有的理解基础之上，这些领域中还有什么更多的可能性？我们又能做些什么？15 位不同领域的讲者和表演者带来他们各自的故事，以及他们理解“拥抱复杂性”的好想法。

Welcome to TEDxGuangzhou 2020 annual conference!

零废弃的大会体验

零废弃大会是 TEDxGuangzhou 团队的一次尝试，也是一个承诺。我们通过将大会中所使用的物资资源按照 Reduce（减量化）、Reuse（再利用）以及 Recycle（再循环）的 3R 原则进行合理管理，将大会可能对环境造成的负担减至最低。和你一起，我们将把大会变得更绿色、更具有可持续性。

Activities that will surprise and delight

Apart from the talks, we want you to have your say! To make friends and even act together, so the ideas will keep travelling beyond the event day. Attendees will have the opportunity to choose from small scale forums, discussions, workshops, hands-ons amoung other activities. It's also a great chance to make meaningful connections.

Zero-waste conference

We intend to create a zero-waste event. We will manage the materials and resources used in the conference based on the 3R principles, "Reduce, Reuse and Recycle", to minimize the environmental impact of the conference. Together with you, we will make the conference greener and more sustainable.

什么是特别支持票？

你愿意以额外 30 元支持 TEDxGuangzhou 团队的持续运营吗？

如你所知，TEDxGuangzhou 是一个非营利活动，由一群志愿者组织，所邀请到的讲者也无偿分享他们的好想法。我们举办年度大会及各类小型活动的资金，源于每一位付费参加的参与者以及合作伙伴的慷慨支持，每一分收入都被完全投入到活动本身的制作和日常运营当中。

今年大会，我们特别设置「特别支持票」，相较标准票种多出的 30 元将会全部投入到 TEDxGuangzhou 团队运营的支出（邮箱 / 网站 / 协作工具等）以及原创媒体内容的产出当中（拍摄 / 采访等制作费用），如果你愿意支持这个志愿团队的持续运营，欢迎选择购买「特别支持票」。

什么是独立赞助？

如果你愿意以个人或组织的身份支持 TEDxGuangzhou 的价值和使命，包含传递好想法，打造产生有意义的讨论空间，我们欢迎你成为独立赞助人，并享受特别活动待遇。

What is Support Ticket?

Would you like to give an extra 30 RMB to support the TEDxGuangzhou team?😉

As you know, TEDxGuangzhou is a non-profit, volunteer-organized event. Not even the speakers get paid for sharing their ideas. Our funding for the annual conference and various small events stems from the generous support of every attendee and partner. The money received goes directly to event production and helps TEDxGuangzhou sustain.

This year, we offer a "Support Ticket". Compared with the standard ticket, the extra 30 RMB will be invested in maintaining TEDxGuangzhou team (e.g. email, website, collaboration tools, etc.), and the creative output of original media content (e.g. filming/interview and other production costs). If you are willing to support us, please opt the "Support Ticket".

Become a Patron

If you are willing to support TEDxGuangzhou's value and mission (including spreading  ideas and creating space for meaningful discussions) on behalf of yourself or your organization, join us as a Patron and receive privileges in the conference.
