“Our Hope Prize winner will have the opportunity to articulate a “wish” or set of “needs” in support of their work to our audience. For TEDxCoconutGrove, we have modeled our own “Hope Prize” after the TED Prize and we hope to offer the talent, expertise, and tradition of service and community that will be present in our audience. We believe that the TEDxCoconutGrove Hope Prize will have a tremendous impact on our community just as the TED Prize has had on the world.”
