What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program calledTEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxEast, where x=independentlyorganized TED event. At our TEDxEast event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
