TEDxIITHyderabad 2021: What’s new this year?

The year 2020 has been a rollercoaster ride for all, but one thing that stayed constant is ‘risk-taking’. Risks are inevitable in life. It serves as a turning point in our lives. Often life throws threats at you uninvitedly, while other times you actively seek them out.

People have been forced to their limits in the last year, prompting them to reconsider their comfort zones. Unsafe is the only paradigm that guarantees the world's survival. In this edition, the renowned speakers at TED Talk will uncover several unnerving experiences of risk-taking in various aspects of life.
