I met with Lloyd Davis of #wewillgather fame, ‘get people together to do good things,’ aspires their successful website, hoping he would bring more of the same. Lloyd is a warm and friendly man. His tips for making TED event successful to me are to leave people the space to talk together, let the smart people be smart, leave plenty of room for fruitful connections. Chance favours the connected mind, being central to TEDxBow’s philosophy.
