The greatest risk of all is not taking one: Cecilia Abadie at TEDxTemecula

Cecilia Abadie is a Google Glass Explorer and Pioneer and a passionate evangelizer about everything digital. She spreads the word about wearable devices and the many ways they can change our world. As the founder and CTO of Byte an Atom, she is part of a global development team that researches and develops wearable and mobile applications to deliver experiences that innovate and disrupt the personal and the enterprise realms.

Cecilia was born in Argentina and raised in Uruguay, which is where she got her Master Degree on Information Systems and where she began her career as an international software consultant and developer. Being scared has been a surviving strategy for millions of years, but everything is changing very rapidly as we become hyper connected and we develop a whole new layer of our brains: our new digital brain. Cecilia Abadie takes us in a journey through her latest adventure taking risks in social media as she shared her experience of getting a ticket for driving with Google Glass.

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, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. 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)
