Since the space is limited, if you'd like to attend the event, please notify us before May 11. Otherwise, tickets would not be guaranteed. Meanwhile, in order to give seats to as many TEDsters as possible, we would only provide you one ticket if there is no request beforehand from you. Hope you would understand.

由于场地有限，请您务必在5月11日前回信告知是否参加本次活动。否则，届时我们可能无法为您安排入场券。同时，为了与更多TED爱好者分享这场脑力激荡的跨界活动，若您无明确说明，我们将仅为您提供一张入场券。希望您能谅解！

Last but not least, we are keen to meet you soon at TEDxFSS!

长话短说，最重要的是，我们非常期待与您在TEDxFSS相遇！

Yours sincerely,

Lawrence on behalf of TEDxFSS team

您诚挚的，

Lawrence 谨代表TEDxFSS全体组织成员

TED and TEDxFSS Introduction

TED is a nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader. Along with two annual conferences -- the TED Conference in Long Beach and Palm Springs each spring, and the TEDGlobal conference in Edinburgh UK each summer -- TED includes the award-winning TEDTalks video site, the Open Translation Project and TED Conversations, the inspiring TED Fellows and TEDx programs, and the annual TED Prize.

TEDxFiveStarSquare is an independently organized event officially licensed by TED. "Five Star" connotes China, while "Square" stands for a committed and sharing community. Based on our core idea "RE锐", we try to dig out the new value behind everything, and bring our participants a Local, Sharp, and Spirited TED experience. The TEDxFiveStarSquare team consists of enthusiastic contributors from various backgrounds and different professions. We strive to cultivate and spread the TED values, so as to inspire innovation, encourage sharing and collaboration. We are organizing annual TEDx events, while developing a local TED community (TEDtoChina.com) in the spirit of TED.

As the only TEDx event this year in Shanghai, TEDxFiveStarSquare 2011 is unveiling on May 15, 2011 in Knowledge & Innovation Center, Shanghai. 20+ speakers/performers will step on our stage, together with 350 participants, experiencing a whole day brainstorming.

TED和TEDxFSS介绍

TED是 Technology, Entertainment, Design（科技、娱乐、设计）三个单词的头字母简写。TED 大会（TED conference）是一个年度性的大会，召集各领域的专家学者和探索者，用演讲的方式分享他们的思考和收获，并通过网络在全球范围带来影响。这个会议的宗旨是“借思想之力，改变世界”（Ideas worth spreading）。它于1984年由Richard Wurman创办，2002年起，由Chris Anderson创办的种子基金会（Saplings Foundation）接手。

TEDxFiveStarSquare是由TED官方授权的中国TEDx活动，“Five Star”象征中国，“Square”象征表达与分享。围绕品牌核心“RE锐”，我们试图发掘事物背后的全新价值，带给参与者一个本土、先锋、充满活力的TED体验。我们的团队由来自不同行业、不同背景的中国TED社区活跃者组成，旨在传播TED精神，激发创想，鼓励分享与合作。我们筹备一年一度的TEDx本地会议，构建本土TED爱好者的社区（TEDtoChina.com），并帮助社区成员将创想化为实干。

作为今年上海唯一一场官方授权的TED活动，TEDxFiveStarSquare 2011的年度大会将在2011年5月15日于上海创智天地揭幕，将有超过20名演讲嘉宾与表演嘉宾走上我们的舞台，与350名参与者一起，经历一整天的头脑风暴与思维碰撞。
