Subathra Subramaniam is a choreographer, dancer and educator. Her choreography straddles ancient and modern, arts and science, dance and research. Suba's work is contemporary but draws on the oldest of dance forms, Bharata Natyam from South India. She is artistic director of Sadhana Dance and her company works are not only based on a desire to innovate and entertain, but a belief that dance, can help the public engage with scientific concepts. Her dance creations are the result of cross-art collaborations and extended periods of research undertaken in scientific and academic institutions. Suba is co-director of the Youth Programme for Cape Farewell, a project which brings together young people, artists, scientists, educators and others to raise awareness about climate change.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. 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 are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
