ABOUT
TEDx
In the spirit of ideas worth sharing, TED has created a program called TEDx, consisting of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxNorthwestern, where x=independently organized TED event. At our TEDxNorthwestern event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
This independent TEDx event is operated under license from TED.
