TEDxMileHigh: Future Corporation



Can a future corporation make a profit by providing clean drinking water to the poorer regions of the earth, where workers make less then $3.00 a day? Business leader, Paul Polak has found a way to do this for pennies a gallon. He presented the plan at the TEDxMileHigh talks in Denver, CO.

"What is the future of the corporation? Paul Polak's vision will likely transform your view of what's possible through capitalism and may change the way current organizations view their business models. His talk details the tremendous shared value that lies within product and system designs for the bottom 90% of the income pyramid."

"In the spirit of "ideas worth spreading," TED has created TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxMileHigh, where x = independently organized TED event. 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, including ours, are self-organized."
