PACE Event Photos!

 

WE THINK OUR MIDDLE NAME IS CURIOSITY... AND FUN!

To demonstrte that, we celebrate our post-event for PACE: Impact Beyond Speed with this short video shot by our main stage photographer, Scott Blasken, during the initial talk by Julien LePage. We kicked off with a dynamic shared drumming activation, demonstrating that "pace" takes many forms...

Our event would not be what it was without our amazing volunteers and our speakers...

For us, it's a rare thing to have one hard-working event photographer capture another having a moment of pure, raw, fun... that's what makes this such a delightful discovery when we were checking photo sets and saw this one of long-time volunteer and true TEDxCalgary friend Scott Blasken. He has captured more iconic images for us over the years with his masterful eye.than we can count, so our thanks to the About Love Photography team for this one!

PACE: Impact Beyond Speed | An origin story

Pace... the concept surrounds us daily, in many forms. How do we explore it?

Our 2025 theme of PACE: Impact Beyond Speed has its origin story in a discussion about what a dominant word was for this time and place in our society. Thanks to an esteemed and wise friend, Carolyn H., the theme of "PACE" was born, and our team added the "Impact Beyond Speed" component to signify that keeping up a fast pace isn't always the best approach, and that pace (or speed) without adequate direction is not effective.
