The TEDx age

Ritik Mehta, our youngest speaker at age 13, just stepped off the stage after schooling the audience on TEDxYouth@Flanders. He was inspired to begin 3D bringing after attending a TEDxFlanders event. Earlier today, Marc Van Montagu talked about genetically-modified plants, which he had a hand in developing. At 80 years old, Marc is an elder-statesman of TEDxFlanders. What does this mean? TEDxFlanders has something for every age!
