If you’re looking for an internship, that means your probably not entirely sure of what field you might want to go into. You want to test the waters, get some experience and see if banking, marine biology or marketing is right for you.  But maybe you have even less of an idea than this and you first want to get some advice from visionaries and key players in a handful of fields before even choosing a summer or winter internship.

If that sound like you, get your ticket to Middlebury’s own TEDx conference, where 16, yes SIXTEEN, amazing speakers will be talking about “How We Got Started: From Idea to Impact.” In the words of the event organizers:  Middlebury’s TEDx conference is “a time to explore new ideas, get inspired by professionals in a wide variety of fields, and gain exposure to individuals’ journeys, concepts, and innovations.” True to the format of TED Talks, each speaker will only speak for 18 minutes.

The conference will take place on Saturday, October 10th from 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. in MBH 216.
