So what is TED and TEDx?
TED began in 1984 as a conference bringing together Technology, Entertainment and Design and is a non-profit focused on spreading ideas through short and impactful talks of up to 18 minutes.
Today it is a world-wide community, covering everything from science to business to global issues.
TED welcomes people from all walks of life and all cultures keen to develop a deeper understanding of the world we live in.
At the heart of TED is the power of ideas to change the world, bringing together inspirational thinkers and speakers to discuss, debate and create.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx program
