Theresa Alfaro Daytner has a passion for business—and for helping entrepreneurs achieve the same success she has enjoyed in her 25-year career. This passion is why the Obama administration invited her to participate in the 2009 White House Small Business Summit, why Fortune magazine named her one of the 10 Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs, and why she is a 2013 Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) Local Hero Honoree. And it's why audiences have found her "funny and smart and a great inspiration."

Daytner brings her incomparable enthusiasm for leadership and business growth to every speaking engagement, leaving her audiences inspired to dream bigger and reach farther. Whether the topic is entrepreneurship, leadership, or government contracting, Daytner has the real-world experience to provide actionable advice that produces results.

Daytner is CEO and President Daytner Construction Group, a commercial construction management and general contracting company. Under her leadership, the business has grown from $100,000/yr in revenue in 2003, to $18M in 2012. This leadership has placed the company on the Inc 500 Fastest Growing Company list for two years running. Daytner has received numerous awards and accolades, including induction into the Smart CEO MD BRAVA Hall of Fame (2012), being named one of the WPO 50 Fastest Growing Women-Owned/led companies in North America (2011), and being a Finalist in the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2010. She was a Panelist in the 2010 White House Women's Business Summit and in 2012 she was invited to be the Department of State Expert Guest in Budapest, Hungary.

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)
