In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self organised events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference Provides General Guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self – organized.* (subject to certain rules and regulations)
