If you're building a brand, making art, or launching something of your own, get the highlights of the event here.
TEDxJUET 2025 was held on May 3, 2025, at Jaypee University of Engineering and Technology (JUET) in Guna, Madhya Pradesh, under the theme “Resonance,” and brought together speakers and stories that aimed to spark real change.
Our founder, Mohit Sharma, stepped onto the stage to share his thoughts about ideas that inspire and transform. For us at Blacklisted, being the part of this event isn’t just a spotlight, but a reflection of everything we’ve stood for since day one.
TEDx is a platform that brings powerful ideas to life through stories, experiences, and fresh perspectives shared by those who have lived it. It’s all about spreading ideas that spark change.
TEDxJUET 2025 was all about “Resonance.” It was about being heard and making your message stick. Resonance is what occurs when an idea hits, stays with a person, and continues to impact long after.
And that’s precisely the sort of thinking Mr. Mohit Sharma has when he revamps the entire branding game for his client.
Entrepreneur. Brand Builder. Creative Visionary.
Blacklisted’s founder and CEO, Mr. Mohit Sharma is not new to making a difference. From partnering with industry giants to starting local brands from ground zero, he has dedicated the past decade to rewriting the definition of creative leadership.
But it’s not the scale of his work. It’s the depths of perfection to which he goes. With strategic storytelling, crisp visual design, and an immersive knowledge of brand psychology, Mohit Sharma has taken businesses from being unseen to unforgettable.
His style speaks to those who are done with the usual noise and are hungry for real clarity.
TEDXJUET 2025 wasn’t the first time Mohit Sharma took on the stage to speak of branding. His ‘Brand Warfare masterclasses‘ have already made a mark in the creative and business circles. In these brand warfare masterclasses, Mohit Sharma talks about how you need to think beyond online trends and engagement.
He makes the audience actively participate in the sessions through creative questionnaires about their brand. During these sessions, he demystifies branding as something more human, not only about logos or ads, but also about the way a brand thinks, feels, and acts.
It’s that straightforward, no-fluff style that’s earned the trust of founders, creators, and marketers. And it’s precisely what the TEDxJUET 2025 witnessed.
At most events, people talk about overcoming challenges, being risk-takers, and staying motivated. And while those are great stories, Mr. Mohit Sharma took a different approach on the TEDxJUET stage.
He talking about something that few people will say out loud: you have to be stubborn to make something happen that truly matters.
Mohit Sharma refers to it as The Stubbornness Theory. It is not just passion or big ideas. It’s clarity on what you want to build, refusing to budge from it, and sticking with it even when nobody gets it, even when everything is going against you.
This mindset has shaped everything Mr. Mohit has done with Blacklisted. It’s how bold campaigns were created, lasting partnerships were built, and ideas were turned into real impact.
So if you’re someone working on a brand, building a startup, creating art, or trying to make your mark, this Ted talk will connect with you.
Because at its core, it’s not just about inspiration, it’s about making your work meaningful and making it last.
2025 turned out to be an eventful year. Feeds were saturated, trends shifted overnight, and every business, creator, and brand was fighting to be heard. After all, everyone is after reach, engagement, and virality. But in the hustle to be seen, many forget what truly matters: being authentic.
That’s precisely where Mohit Sharma’s message breaks through the clutter. He’s not here to discuss growth hacks or algorithms. He’s here to discuss creative stubbornness which is a frame of mind that makes people hold on to what they think, even if the market is against them.
Because creating something worthwhile requires more than creativity. It requires clarity, consistency, and the guts to resist every trend simply because it’s trendy.
In his words, “you don’t have to be everywhere. You just have to be at the right spot and speak to the right people.”
For founders attempting to create a brand from the ground up, for artists attempting to remain genuine, for creators attempting to be noticed without being compromised; this Ted talk was a sober reminder.
TEDxJUET is only the beginning. We’re not here for moments. We’re here for momentum.
And as Mr. Mohit Sharma shone on the stage to talk of stubborn belief and innovative conviction, we’ll continue to do what we’ve always done: brand boldly, lead with intention, and stay rooted in the creativity we believe.
