About TEDx, x = independently organized event

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, 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.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

  • Thank you Taylor for the inspiration. if you did it I can do it. yes I will .

  • There are 2 students of Chuck norris here

    

  • Great idea and use of tech whose time has come!  Nothing new really in terms of philanthropic motivations (see The Seven Faces of Philanthropy by R.A. Prince & K.M. File). All good fundraisers know the importance of connecting with these motivations - especially the personal connection part. What is new: the tech to pseronalize a video message and give the donor personalized e-tools to help challenge their friends. The challenge of getting people to take 3 hours to make video remains.
