The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/t... • Iiro Välimäki sheds light on a hidden epidemic—loneliness—and its profound effects on our health. Far from being a simple emotion, loneliness disrupts our nervous system and challenges our evolutionary need for connection, signaling danger to our brains. • Välimäki doesn’t stop at diagnosis. He offers practical steps to rebuild connections—starting with ourselves. His talk highlights how self-care, community, and meaningful bonds can transform loneliness from a threat into an opportunity for growth. A vital message for an increasingly isolated world. Iiro is the founder and CEO of Lääkärikekus Fenix. He has a PhD of medical sciences and done research in the field of human physiology. Medical advisor and partner of Frendie, which prevents loneliness at work and leisure time, promoting social well-being through its developed technology. The service provides organizations with social responsibility reports. • • Venture capital investor in over 10 companies for example Ductor, Tamturbo, Fender, Decentum, TILT biotherapeutics and NewIcon.
