Vladi Shunturov, co-founder of Lucid Design Group, discusses software's potential to be the first disruptive innovation in buildings since the Otis elevator. Buildings, especially those built more than 20 years ago, consume 2/3 of world's electricity and are one of the biggest factors in 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)
