In April we have been honored with invitations to present our Relief 2.0 model and the Markets of Hope project at two international TEDx conferences across the globe.

TEDxSilkRoad: Borderless Creativity and Commerce brought us to Istanbul, Turkey where we had the privilege of sharing the stage with distinguished speakers from IDEO, CuteCircuit and Universities from around the globe.

I am interested in running a 1 year after photo exhibit to share the situation on the ground 1 year after the Tsunami in Japan.

Some of the photos can be found here.

The purpose of this photo exhibit is to create awareness for the situation on the ground and to thank all of the people who have gave their support to the survivors.
