TED Fellows Friday

We are proud to support the TED Fellows program, because we truly believe in giving a voice and platform for social entrepreneurs, innovators, and changemakers, like the Fellows, who are coming up with big ideas that can change the world. The Fellows get to benefit from the amazing resources that TED provides, and we want to be able to share some of their experiences and learnings with up-and-comers and social citizens with great ideas who aspire to be like them.

Since the TED and TED Fellows blogs feature a series, Fellows Friday, that profiles one Fellow each week, we asked them to answer another question for our audience:

There are many aspiring social entrepreneurs out there who are trying to take their passion and ideas to the next level. What is one piece of advice you would give to them based on your own experiences and successes?

So, every Friday – starting this week – in conjunction with the Fellows Friday posts, we’ll also highlight each person’s answer to the question above on our blog. We’ll continue to look for ways to feature the Fellows and their amazing work and insight. Check back here for a quick look at all of our posts that reference TED Fellows.

For those who are less familiar with the TED Fellows program, it is an international fellowship that selects a group of 40 individuals from all around the world each year, who show world-changing potential, to participate in the TED Conferences. The program is designed to help nurture and spread their work to the world. Ten of the 40 Fellows are then selected to be a part of an extended Senior Fellows program. The Case Foundation is a sponsor of the TED Senior Fellows program. For more information about the TED Fellows program, check out http://www.ted.com/fellows.
