About TEDx

TEDx events are independently organised by local teams under a TED licence. They bring the same emphasis on concise, idea-led talks to towns, schools and neighbourhoods. Each event is shaped by its community, so the programme reflects local concerns and voices rather than a central agenda.

Speakers present focused, well-prepared talks, often under 18 minutes, and events combine live presentations with curated TED videos and performances. Organisers follow TED’s rules on non-commercial content and speaker integrity, but they design the rest to be meaningful and relevant for their audience.
Over time TEDx has become a practical way for local thinkers, activists and students to practise public speaking, test ideas and start conversations that can lead to real projects.
