To put simply, James is an architect; considering he has a degree in architecture from University College London. But what he does, goes beyond the realms of architecture. James is a Cybertect. By coining the notion of Cybertecture, James leads the charge in blending new materials and technologies within architecture, to pave the way for innovating the fabric of mankind. Accredited as a Young Global Leader 2010 by World Economic Forum, James Law has won numerous international awards on architectural design and leadership. He believes, the future is Cybertecture. Live the future. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
