Marian Bantjes, David Rockwell Among TED 2010 Speakers

When a four-day conference is structured around a dozen nouns—from action and boldness to simplicity and wisdom—you know it’s going to be good. Such is TED2010, the annual conference that began as a technology, entertainment, and design (hence, TED) confab and 25 years later has become a World Economic Forum of the mind. Creativity is king and talks are 18-minute revelations. The theme of this year’s conference, which kicks off on February 9 in Long Beach, California, is “What the world needs now”—not so much love, sweet love, as “core ideas that will drive our quest for a better future.”
