Is there a better way?: Thomas Ulbrich at TEDxUniversityatBuffalo



Published on Apr 18, 2013

Tom's professional career gives him a skill set that reflects over thirty years of education, communication, management, and public service experience. He possesses a demonstrated record of success as an entrepreneur and is CEO of Mow More Supplies, and e-Commerce company. He is a vocal advocate for small business and speaks frequently on subjects related to entrepreneurship and the importance of small business to the economy. He will talk about living in a world of rapidly increasing exponential change and how it is critical that we instill the transformational principles of entrepreneurial thinking throughout our entire educational system. Building an educational culture that attracts, motivated and incents young entrepreneurs is at the heart of beginning to tackle the healthcare crisis and other "wicked" problems we are faced with today.

 In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
