> Born in 1989 with tetraparesis, Tedy Necula learned to speak word by word. Today he directs films on Netflix, speaks on TEDx stages and leads NECULA Agency.

# My story · Tedy Necula · I had to fight for every word I speak.

So I only speak words that matter.

I help brands to deliver emotion and grow, with the power of inspirational video content strategies, motivational speeches and film.

My first film, Beside Me, runs on Netflix and Amazon Prime. I am “thrilled” to be the only disabled director from Romania.

My life story inspired audiences, therefore I deliver motivational speeches in events, companies and TED talks.

Let me help your brand inspire a world.
