In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx, a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxSF, where x=independently organized TED event. At our TEDxSF events, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized. To learn more about TEDx, please visit ted.com/tedx. Through TEDxSF events, we hope to: 1. Educate and inspire 2. Bring together innovators and explorers 3. Encourage the responsible use of resources and talents 4. Foster an environment of sharing and embracing passions If you are interested in participating in TEDxSF events, please complete a membership.
