The WhyNot?Forum is inspired by TEDTalks (www.ted.com), wherein leading thinkers and doers around the world share their thoughts, ideas, dreams, and experiences, which are then posted on the web for free for all the world to see.
We envision the WhyNot? Forum as the Filipino version; It is a smorgasboard of great, brave ideas, an open-source innovation soup that will hopefully inspire other Filipinos to connect adjunct thoughts, take impactful action, and weave together new breakthrough ideas — redefining and challenging the inertia of the status quo;
All in the spirit of positive change for the Philippines.
