INTRODUCING OUR
TEDxJakartaSalon: The Little Unknown
In times where we are always on the grind, constantly moving from one goal to another and accomplishing more than we have ever done before, when was the last time we just stopped what we are doing and took in our surroundings?
More often than not we tend to overlook the rudimentary, the everyday objects we see and consume without having a glance at its importance. These things pass us by without us knowing its significance and role in our everyday life and future.
From superbugs that consume trash, Indonesia’s readily available superfood, to the bacteria in our guts, join us in discovering the importance of these little unknowns in our TEDxJakartaSalon!

From TED.com:
At a TEDx salon, attendees watch TED Talks, sometimes host a few speakers (though it’s not required) and have informal discussions about the talks they witnessed. Salons re-engage community and team during the time between official TEDx events, and spark discussion on issues of interest to local community.
