  2. What is 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. • Past speakers include Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon, Sir Richard Branson, Philippe Starck and Bono. • TED was first held in Monterey, California, in 1984. In 2001, Chris Anderson’s Sapling Foundation acquired TED from its founder, Richard Saul Wurman.

  3. What is TEDx? • In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx - local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. • At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. • These local, self-organized 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. • Click here to watch TED Curator Chris Anderson’s explanatory video.
