Watch my TEDx talk on how AI and VR are changing the world

Dear Innovators,

Let me begin with the central theme of my TEDx talk: let’s ensure that our curiosity about the world is not stifled by fear of the unknown. This idea also applies to virtual technologies and artificial intelligence. These tools hold immense potential for both our personal and professional lives. So let’s take a bold step toward innovation—because we all stand to gain from it. And you, of all people, already know this.

Perhaps you’re struggling to convince decision-makers in your organization to invest in innovative solutions, or you’re wondering which innovation to prioritize amid so many possibilities and challenges. I understand—it can be daunting, sometimes even frustrating. But I assure you, it’s possible. Many have succeeded in bringing innovative projects to life within their organizations. At Connected Realities, we’ve witnessed it firsthand, working on countless projects and breaking barriers alongside people like you.

If you ever need support in educating stakeholders, crafting compelling arguments, or getting ready to implement these technologies, reach out. And once you’re ready to take that leap into innovation, let’s make it happen together.

Back to my TEDx experience: I stood there, smiling warmly at the audience, and they smiled back. Before I even spoke, the room filled with applause—a heartfelt welcome that carried me through the entire talk. Working with the amazing TEDx Lublin team, sharing emotions with fellow speakers, and engaging with the audience—people who chose to be there that day—made this an unforgettable journey.

The joy of those moments stayed with me, from the event itself to the celebrations afterward and even into the next morning. Hosting this talk in my hometown, Lublin, made it all the more meaningful. TEDx became a celebration of ideas, relationships, and energy—a space to connect with like-minded individuals and those who see the world differently, making the experience even more enriching.

This joy of connection extends to you as well. That’s why I’m sharing my TEDx talk with you—to pass on the energy I hope will resonate with you.

Today, I turn 47. It’s been 17 years as an entrepreneur, over a decade focused exclusively on innovation for large enterprises with my partners Jagna Pomorska and Krzysztof Jasiński at Connected Realities, and three years deeply engaged in educational initiatives. From launching the “Innovators” podcast and writing a newsletter on innovation to publishing my book “Direction: Metaverse”—and now, TEDx—it feels like the perfect cherry on top for this year.

But just around the corner are new, exciting challenges. As I waited backstage at the iconic Teatr Stary in Lublin, counting down the minutes to step onto the famous TEDx “red dot,” I felt calm, smiling and eager to share what I had prepared. I planned to start seriously, pausing for a moment before diving in. How did it go?

May it inspire you to discover new, exciting connections between the potential of technological innovation and your passions—both professional and personal. And if you think someone else might benefit from watching, feel free to share it with them along with my best wishes.
