GLOBAL – Nokia and TED are far from strangers when it comes to collaboration, first teaming up around the Pangea Day events back in May 2008. If you’re new to TED (which stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design), it’s a fantastic organization that for 25 years has been delivering, in its own words, “Inspired talks by the world’s leading thinkers and doers”.
