Are you ready for the final three speakers featured at TEDxAmsterdam? We are very excited to announce Robbert Dijkgraaf, Tony DiSanto and Merlijn Twaalfhoven.

Before Professor Robbert Dijkgraaf started teaching mathematical physics at the University of Amsterdam, he taught at Princeton University in New Jersey in the United States. After studying math and physics, Dijkgraaf attended the Gerrit Rietveld Academie before returning to science at University of Utrecht. Since May 19 2008 Dijkgraaf is president of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Tony DiSanto is President of Programming and Development at MTV in New York. He developed several reality shows and was executive producer of hit series Run’s House, The Hills, The City, Paris Hilton: My New BFF and Made.

Merlijn Twaalfhoven is a Dutch composer and organizer of music events. As a composer he feels responsible for the complete experience of the spectator. Space and sound are not separable, and the visual always influences the auditive. Because of this vision, Twaalfhoven often lets musicians work together with visual artists, choreographers and directors.
