TEDxTallinn is an independently organized event bringing together people from different fields to get a TED-like experience.

What is TED?

TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 26 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. At TED, the world's leading thinkers and doers are asked to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes. Talks are then made available, free, at TED.com. With its two annual conferences, video website TED.com initiatives and community projects, TED is now a platform and a global movement focused on meaningful change through the power of ideas.

What is TEDx?

In the spirit of "ideas worth spreading," TED has created TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. TEDx events are fully planned and coordinated independently, on a community-by-community basis. Our event is called TEDxTallinn, where x = independently organized TED event. At TEDxTallinn, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
