TEDxSydney is an independently organised event licensed from TED by longtime TEDster, Remo Giuffré (REMO General Store) and organised by a network of fellow thinkers and other long time collaborators. The TEDxSydney mission, like the TED mission, is to propagate Ideas Worth Spreading; to inform and inspire. Our more specific vision for TEDxSydney is to make it the Asia Pacific region’s leading platform and pipeline for the propagation of great ideas, storytelling, creativity and actionable innovation to the rest of the world; to create and foster a sense of community amongst the people and organisations who have gathered (and continue to gather) around this event; to provide a cultural focus and impetus for conversation and debate. TED is a US based not-for-profit enterprise devoted to the propagation of Ideas Worth Spreading. TED started out in 1984 as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment & Design. Started as a four-day conference in California 28 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.

Our mission is to discover and spread ideas, spark conversation, deepen understanding and drive meaningful change to create a just, sustainable and joyful future. We are also the home of Climate Curious podcast, listen wherever you get your podcasts. About TEDxLondon TEDxLondon has been around in multiple forms since 2010. Under the current leadership, we have been running since 2018. In this short time we’ve been recognised on a global level by TED as being one of the top TEDx events. We’ve built a meaningful community and demonstrated an exceptional commitment to ideas worth spreading, community mentorship and TED values. For this we were awarded one of the first ever Legacy licences by TED, in 2020. We are a non-profit, volunteer-led organisation. Together, we seek out the most inspiring and innovative solutions that go beyond limitations, beyond labels, pushing boundaries to create the kind of world we all want to live in. 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, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. 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.)

Like the city itself, TEDxMelbourne brings together a diverse group of people to share ideas, knowledge and inspiration. A series of events are held throughout the year featuring live speakers and TED Talk videos combining to spark deep discussion, connection and thought. Our events are held in iconic Melbourne venues such as the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, State Library of Victoria and Melbourne Recital Centre with themes including design, education, innovation, technology, youth, TEDxWomen and the city. Past speakers include: Ronni Kahn, Rone, Liz Broaderick, Cathy Foley, Lisa Leong, Electric Fields For more about TEDxMelbourne visit our website: http://tedxmelbourne.com/ Follow us: http://twitter.com/TEDxMelbourne Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TEDxMelbourne ABOUT TEDx In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED created TEDx where x = independently organised TED event.
