Aldrich Ignatius Sidabutar
Producer
BIO
As Producer of TEDxBroerstraat, Aldrich is in charge of organizing the speaker selection committee and design an experience not only through the Talks but also the physical set design and venue curation. Aldrich works alongside the team to ensure the quality of TEDxBroerstraat 2026 is satisfactory for all speakers and participants.
MY APPROACH
I have a vision to create an event that feels as if it takes us all to a pocket dimension from the moment we enter the venue and stage. This includes the set design, seating, lighting, and other spaces. My wish is for TEDxBroerstraat to fully embody and realize the intangible “student-academic community” into something participants can feel and remember, on theme with “Memory”.

Marta Liduma
Co-Producer
BIO
As Co-Producer of TEDxBroerstraat, Marta co-leads the speaker journey from discovery to delivery, managing outreach, selection, auditions, and thematic coordination. With experience spanning five languages and three continents, she brings a uniquely global lens to curating voices for our “Memory” theme. Marta ensures that each speaker contributes to a narrative that our student-academic community can carry forward.
MY APPROACH
Good curation is just pattern recognition with better taste. When you’ve called multiple continents home, you learn that memory is the ultimate translator, turning experiences into a connected story. I approach speaker curation the same way I approach languages: with precision, cultural sensitivity, and an ear for what resonates across boundaries. My goal is to assemble a lineup that feels less like a series of talks and more like a conversation across ways of knowing.

MY APPROACH
The vision that I have for TEDxBroerstraat 2026 extends to the legacy that we, as a team, want to leave behind: one that reflects integrity, innovation and community. I want to supplement the creation of an event that promotes a feeling of connection and encourages attendees to explore avenues previously unknown to them. The community of Groningen should leave the event having learned new things, not only about themselves, but also about the world around them. Most importanly, I hope that everyone realises the value of memory and how it weaves the very fabric of our existence.

I believe marketing can do more than attract attention; it can nurture emotional intelligence, build community, and bring small moments of happiness into people’s lives.
