Less than 350 people in the world, and only a handful of married couples have ever climbed all of the Seven Summits -- the highest mountain peaks on each of the seven continents.  Paul & Denise Fejtek joined that elite group after reaching their seventh and final summit on May 23, 2010, the Earth's highest - Mt. Everest.  Their climbs were in support of the Challenged Athletes Foundation, who also named Paul as the Most Inspirational Athlete of the Year.  They have been featured on NBC News, Fox News, and The Today Show as well as named by OC Metro Magazine in their annual list of the 25 Hottest People in Orange County.  Paul Fejtek is the author of "Steps to the Summit -- Reaching the Top in Business and Life" http://stepstothesummit.com/


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)
