TEDxKFAS was organized in 2015 and 2018 with the goal to bring out improvements for the future through sharing new and creative ideas. In August 2015, thirteen experts delivered thought-provoking presentations in three sessions titled "Smart Living," "China in 2025," and "Ventures for a Better Future." In 2018, there were again three sessions, which were called "Let's Brain-Storm," "Seeing the Unseen," and "Guardians of Life."
