The Stage

As the TED team travels around the world hosting salons in 14 cities, we’re collecting great local stories. Here’s a quick report from TED@Johannesburg, held May 3, 2012, at MIAGI Centre for Music, and locally hosted by the team at TEDxSoweto.

Start with taking a look at the event through the TEDxSoweto Flickr collection here.

Then relive the excitement through tweets from attendees and talent:
