“The strong alignment between the two organizations is what is driving our partnership,” said Carol Borchert, Chief Marketing Officer at Morris Animal Foundation. “Our mission to advance the science of animal health, and TEDxMileHigh’s expertise in spreading big ideas will help bring the work we do to a larger audience and increase awareness and understanding of the challenges facing our animal kin around the world.”

The producers of TEDxMileHigh will be working with each speaker to develop their story and message, as well as provide coaching and training on presentation style. For the speakers, the opportunity will help them share their work in an exciting way with a global audience and expand the impact of their research.

When finalized, future times and dates of presentations will be found on both the Morris Animal Foundation and TEDxMileHigh websites.
