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)

Indeed, entrepreneurship is the most ethical thing to do.

Something like 80 or 90% of all new business fail within the first 5 years. How is that "security for your family"? Security only comes with a _successful_ business, and there is a huge risk in getting there.
