TEDxCincinnati

In the spirit of Ideas Worth Spreading, TEDxCincinnati brings people together to share a TED-like experience. Individual TEDx events are self-organized, where the x = independently organized. The TEDxCincinnati 2017 Main Stage event on June 17, 2017 will feature live TED talks from some of our region's most creative people, TED talk videos and performers to spark deep discussion and connection. We are building a TEDxCincinnati community, not just an event. Our Mission Live Consciously. Be Authentic. Empower Others. Our Community Cincinnati is a thriving hub for many disciplines including technology, entertainment, design, science, humanities, business, and development. It is a community of remarkable individuals who contribute to “Ideas Worth Spreading.” About TED TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a conference in California 26 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with many initiatives. At a TED conference, the world’s leading thinkers and doers are asked to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes or less. TED speakers have included Roger Ebert, Sheryl Sandberg, Bill Gates, Elizabeth Gilbert, Benoit Mandelbrot, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Brian Greene, Isabel Allende and former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. Three major TED events are held each year: The TED Conference takes place every spring in Vancouver, Canada, simultaneous with TEDActive, in Whistler, British Columbia; and the TEDGlobal Conference takes place each summer in Edinburgh, Scotland.
