Lakeville
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, TED Talks videos and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a diverse 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.
