Tan Le is the founder of Emotiv, a company


developing technology for reading brainwaves.

Her family fled Vietnam in a small boat when


she was four years old and rebuilt their life
from there. She grew up in Australia and now
lives in San Francisco, where she heads her
company. She tells her riveting life story in
another TED Talk, “My immigration Story.” It is
a good example of the power of engaging an
audience with a personal story.
