Haiti radio personality and multimedia mogul Carel Pedre was a featured speaker at TED Talks edition held at Point-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe. The Port-au-Prince-based radio host was Haiti’s only speaker representative at the motivational speaking conference. TED holds speaking conferences in cities around the world, and this was one of its rare stops in a city in the French Caribbean. This was a career coup for Pedre, who is one of Haiti’s most visible media personalities. Prior to his trip to Guadeloupe, Music Explorer had chosen him as a tastemaker for their website.
