About TEDxBoston

TEDx Boston . . .
Revolutionary Ideas.

What happens when a group of people rally around a radical idea and set in motion unlimited possibilities for a brighter future? A Revolution.

More than 230 years ago, ordinary citizens in Boston dreamed of a democracy and launched a revolution that changed the course of human history. That innovative spirit still thrives in our local students, educators, scientists, artists, leaders, and entrepreneurs. At TEDx Boston, we celebrate their ideas and their passion for improving the way citizens of the world learn, live, give, work, and play.

About the Speakers

About TEDx

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx.

TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxBoston, where x=independently organized TED event. At TEDxBoston, TEDTalks videos and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in our community.

The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
