TED event vs.

TEDx event

What’s the difference?

TED: A TED event is put on by the official organization itself.

TEDx: A TEDx event is an independently organized local event. x= independent

BOTH: Speakers give carefully prepared talks, demonstrations, and performances on a large variety of topics. The purpose is to spark conversation, foster learning, inspiration and wonder.

Spread ideas! TEDxUCDavis is a local community, welcoming people from every discipline and culture

who seek a deeper understanding of the world. We’re building a clearinghouse of free knowledge for a community of curious souls to engage and share ideas that strive to change attitudes, lives, and

ultimately, the world.

TEDxUCDavis Mission Statement
