TEMECULA, Calif. - EntSun -- TEDxTemecula organizers announced today the speaker lineup for its annual event happening Saturday, September 28, 2019. The conference will be held at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater. The theme this year is ElevaTEDxperience.

"We're delighted to bring this conference to the region for its eighth consecutive year," says Jim McLaughlin, Organizer, TEDxTemecula. "We're never short on finding local visionaries with bold ideas. This year is no exception."

The talks given at the annual TEDxTemecula conference are intended to spark curiosity and challenge the audience's ideas around global topics, from education to technology to the far-flung regions of the universe. The event aims to inspire, entertain, and elevate conversations in the region.

The 2019 speakers include:

·       Leonard Szymczak, Educator, Psychotherapist, and Writer: Leonard has been on the vanguard of men's health in Australia and America for 35 years. An educator, psychotherapist, and award-winning author of four books, he directed a Family Therapy Training Program in Sydney and later worked with the Family Institute at Northwestern University.

·       Pablo Thomas Mora, Professional Kid: Pablo has been home-schooled both in America and abroad.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

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, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. 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.)

Many of these talks are given at TED conferences, including our annual gathering in Vancouver, as well as TEDWomen, intimate TED Salons and thousands of independently organized TEDx events around the world. Videos of these talks are made available, free, on TED.com and other platforms. Audio versions of the talks from TED2019 will also be published to TED's podcast TED Talks Daily, available on Apple Podcasts and all other podcast platforms.
