TEDxUSC, the first TEDx event which paved the way for hundreds more around the globe in the past 12 months, was yet another hit this year. The lineup at this year's event was a wonderful follow up to TEDxUSC 2009. We had an amazing time catching up with old friends and colleagues as well as meeting new friends in a huge array of diversely groundbreaking fields. Cheers to Ms. Krisztina "Z" Holly, director of USC's Stevens Institute for Innovation, and her team for an inspiring day of exploration, research, creative technology, music, art, dance and play. We look forward to TEDxUSC 2011!
