Solving Poverty Without a Big Wallet | Davis Nguyen | TEDxUCDavisSF

“In 2010, Davis learned how one person could solve poverty without needing much money. His talk is about how you could solve poverty for others regardless of your own income level.”

Davis Nguyen enjoys coaching other to succeed. Davis was raised by a single mother in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Atlanta before receiving full scholarships to Yale and Harvard Universities. He ultimately graduated from Yale with honors and a degree in economics, studying the tie between social connectedness and poverty.

Today, Davis works at Bain & Company helping leaders better their organizations; his results include working with a biotech company to develop a launch strategy for a life-saving drug, a tech company to find over $100 million in annual savings, and a low-income school district to improve their teacher retention. Davis aspires to use his personal and professional experiences to help others thrive.

Davis watched his first TED/TEDx video in 2010. To date, his favorite TED talk is The power of introverts by Susan Cain, a hero of his and whom he had the honor of working with for 2 years.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
