10/12/2026

Thank you, Fairchild Equipment for your support! Without our sponsor partners TEDx Oconomowoc would have remained an idea.

Ideas's worth sharing are ideas worth implementing. We would encourage anyone in need of comprehensive solutions for moving, stacking, and storing materials across Wisconsin, Minnesota, Northern Illinois, North Dakota, and Michigan's Upper Peninsula to reach out to them.

🎤 FEATURED SPEAKER: HON. MARIA S. LAZAR

We’re honored to welcome Judge Maria S. Lazar, Presiding Judge of the Wisconsin Court of Appeals, District II, as a featured speaker at TEDxOconomowoc 2026!
Judge Lazar brings decades of experience in law and public service—from 20 years in private practice and serving as a Wisconsin Assistant Attorney General to her time as a Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge and, now, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals.

Throughout her career, she has served in leadership roles across Wisconsin’s legal community while remaining committed to service, education, and making a meaningful difference.

Her TEDx talk, “Ignite the Spirit,” brings that experience to the TEDxOconomowoc stage for a conversation designed to inspire, challenge, and encourage us to think differently about the impact we can make.

🔥 Sometimes all it takes is one idea to ignite something bigger.
