In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDxAlexanderPark is part of TED’s TEDx 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 events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but TEDxAlexanderPark events are organized by local volunteers. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
