I had a great time at TEDCity. I am just now starting to recover from the intensity of the experience.
Herman Turkstra, CEO, 701.com, Hamilton, ON.

Highly intensive, rigorous, intellectual, exhaustive, a really amazing time. I think this is really going to grow into something in Canada.
Karim Rashid, Karim Rashid Inc., New York.

What great minds and what a great party! I really think you got the Canadians talking -and as you know- that is indeed an accomplishment! I hope the tradition continues.
Julie Bradshaw, Managing Director, Suite101.com, Vancouver, BC.

I like seeing lots of dot-com millionaires rubbed up against writers, artists and architects. It's wildly eclectic.
William Gibson, Science Fiction Author, Vancouver, BC.

Fabulous, provocative, creative, intense, great parties, best conference I ever attended...
Tim Carroll, MBA student, Charlottetown, PEI

I'm a TED convert, and will now infect others with the virus.

The people who got to TEDCity, they've got the advantage. Just watch what they do in the future. It was stunning. TEDCity was the best piece of consulting I've received in a long time.

It was with great pleasure that I recently attended your TEDCity conference in Toronto ... and will be encouraging some very interesting people to attend the next one (there will be a next one, right?).

Just coming back to earth here after a wonderful conference...I had a fantastic, mind expanding time.

I was really floored a couple of times. TEDCity was amazing. It exceeded my expectations.

In these four days we got great ideas that inspire, and we also received the encouragement to be intellectually courageous, spiritual, idiosyncratic, even eccentric.
Jacques de Suze, Miami, Florida

"TEDCity exceeded all my expectations. I can recommend it to anyone who likes to think and enjoys stimulation of the brain."
Peter Lansdorp, MD, Vancouver, BC.

It's so seductive and so energizing. TEDCity is absolutely life changing.

TEDCity was the single most inspirational, profitable, spiritually uplifting four days of my life. It's like playing a game with no rules in an intellectual sandbox.

I want to be there for the next one!!

I can't tell you how much I appreciated being at TEDCity. It was mind stretching, exhilarating, exciting and caused really deep thinking. Thank you. Robert A. Fung, Senior Partner, Capital West Group, Toronto.

It was impossible for anyone to anticipate what a wonderful event TEDCity would be - a great asset to the city. I hope that you will do it again.
David Mirvish, The Royal Alexandra Theatre, Toronto.

TEDCity was a magnificent event. It elevated the cerebral thought process for me, and I came away steeped in the ideas presented. No other conference has accomplished this to the degree that TEDCity has.
