About TED
TED is an annual event where some of the world's leading thinkers and doers are invited to share what they are most passionate about. "TED" stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design — three broad subject areas that are, collectively, shaping our future. Attendees have called it "the ultimate brain spa" and "a four-day journey into the future." The diverse audience — CEOs, scientists,
creatives, philanthropists — is almost as extraordinary as the speakers. About TEDx
TEDx was created in the spirit of TED's mission, "ideas worth spreading." TEDx is a new program that enables local communities such as schools, businesses, libraries, to organize and host their own independent, TED-like events. The program is designed to give communities and individuals the opportunity to stimulate dialogue through TED-like experiences at the local level.
