Hello curious minds,

We are excited to announce the launch of our new vertical, which aims to explore, analyze, and celebrate the ideas that shape our world. Introducing ‘Idea-ntify’ the official magazine of TEDxIOE Pulchowk. Get ready to Identify Yourself, Innovate, Inspire. Idea-ntify is a literary journey that transcends borders and creates a community where ideas are not only recognized but also carefully identified for their potential to bring about transformation.

Idea-ntify is a magazine with a name that combines the words “idea” and “identify”, representing our mission of recognizing, understanding, and giving life to ideas that can shape the future. It’s not just a publication, but a verb, an action that highlights the ideas that truly matter, in a world full of information and noise. Our goal is to cut through the clutter and emphasize the most important ideas.

Idea-ntify is a platform where you can read and write articles that are like TEDx Talks but in written form. Anyone can contribute by sharing their unique and inspiring ideas. It’s a great way to stay up-to-date with the latest trends and thought-provoking concepts. If you’re not familiar with TEDx Talks, they’re events where people give short talks on diverse topics, from science to art to global issues. You can learn more about them by visiting this link.

Beyond Talks

TEDxIOE Pulchowk is all about spreading ideas worth sharing, and Idea-ntify is an extension of that commitment. While our TEDx talks ignite sparks of inspiration on stage, this magazine is a canvas for those sparks to evolve into fully-fledged concepts, discussions, and narratives.

Get Involved

Idea-ntify is a community-driven initiative that invites everyone to contribute. Whether you have an idea to share, a story to tell, or valuable insights to offer, Idea-ntify is the perfect platform for you. Let’s work together to create a space where diverse voices can come together and shape a collective narrative.
