Event description

When arriving in Vancouver in 2017, John wanted to share his passion for science and innovation with the Langara community. Taking advantage of his project management skills and past experiences, he decided to pursue an old dream of participating in a TEDx event. Although there were no events he knew about, John decided he would organize one, and in conjunction with Langara College and its Project Management Club, he was able to make his dream a reality. In this presentation, he will share how he was able to do it, and how you can apply your project management skills to organize one yourself.
