Newest TED Videos - How Do You Rethink How the World Works? An Entrepreneur + an Engineer Answer | TED Intersections

What happens when following the “right” path leads you to the “wrong” place? Kickstarter cofounder Yancey Strickler and scientist Jenny Du discuss how they’ve made careers out of rethinking old systems and imagining new ones. They dive into the spark that led to their success — and show why it’s important to love your own “weird ways” of being.
