TEDxGulshan also holds TEDxStudio license, with a couple of studio Talks already published on the official TEDxTalks YouTube channel.
This year, 2023, TEDxGulshan is going to host one of the biggest TEDx event of Bangladesh, on the 4th of November at Aloki convention space. The theme for this year’s TEDxGulshan is ‘Innovation for Equality’.
