In the spirt 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.

Chris Wink-"Six Creative Mindsets"
David Rock-"The Provocateur"
Jaimie Cloud-"Sustainability in Schools"
Daniel J. Siegel, M.D.-"Creating Integrated Minds"
