The theme for TEDxIIT 2011 was "Break Through."That's what innovation is all about. Break through the barrier, old belief and common perception.As an IIT alum and a TEDx Speaker, there is nothing more exciting than seeing the dream of TEDxIIT event come true. The dream that the students could organize an event with the speakers of their own choice, in a professional format, with the support of the school, IIT, Illinois Institute of Technology, and leave a permanent digital foot print. Done.The event was stream alive on TEDx.com website and was accessible to millions on line. The event fostered the relationship between the alumni and current students. The event bought the various departments together and started the interdisciplinary discussion. The event generated pride of being affiliated with IIT. The event planted seeds for many potential opportunities for collaboration.

Innovation Is Ticking . . . Aha, that's IIT, isn't it?
