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.)

The first TEDxGöteborg took place November 28th 2009 and we were overwhelmed by all the speakers, audience and other participants all around the world!
Watch our speakers from our previous events:
TEDxGöteborg #1 - 28 November 2009

"When I left TEDxGöteborg I couldn't let go of the feeling that have been on an Internet seminar. Not a seminar about the Internet but that I've been "inside the Internet". Outside the dark room with the lit scene, the inspiring speakers and all the interactivity it felt a bit empty. But inside the room the whole world were at present. We were on the Internet with the powerful messages at the same time across the globe, available to anyone with Internet access. I have never experienced the world so small! And that was confirmed when the moderator read out a twitter message from the roof top of the world - Nepal!”

TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 25 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. The annual TED Conference invites the world's leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes. Their talks are then made available, free, at TED.com.
TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Al Gore, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Nandan Nilekani, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Isabel Allende and UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The annual TED Conference takes place in Long Beach, California, with simulcast in Palm Springs; TEDGlobal is held each year in Oxford, UK. TED's media initiatives include TED.com, where new TEDTalks are posted daily, and the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as the ability for any TEDTalk to be translated by volunteers worldwide. TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world are given the opportunity to put their wishes into action; TEDx, which offers individuals or groups a way to host local, self-organized events around the world; and the TEDFellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.

Den 20 november, på FN:s internationella barndag, hålls TEDxYouth i Göteborg för andra året i rad. 18 talare får max 18 minuter var att sprida sina idéer. Den yngsta är 14 år och den äldsta 24 år. Eventet är gratis och sänds även live på TEDxGöteborgs hemsida, www.tedxgoteborg.com.
TEDxYouth anordnas samtidigt i fler än 50 länder. Varje arrangemang är en lokal, fristående variant av de populära TED-föreläsningarna. TED (Technology,Entertainment, Design) är en icke vinstdrivande organisation med devisen ”Ideas worth spreading”.
Från scenen i Göteborg hör du bland andra 14-åriga Selma Bile tala om barns drömmar om ett bättre liv, det tonåriga Rockabillybandet Sixten and the Cupcakes och Mikael Ingemyr som upptäckte en jätteplanet när han var 19 år.
