ANZ Country Manager at Akamai, Ian Teague, said "Akamai has a long-standing relationship with TED, so we naturally wanted to support this exciting first TEDx event in Sydney. The Internet is the best vehicle to reach millions of people around the world, and Akamai's technology makes it possible.

We have a rich heritage in delivering live event webcasts and we are excited to be leveraging our expertise to enable individual Australians and people across the world to engage with the ideas and unique performances from Australia's leading visionaries and storytellers"
