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 TEDxShanghai, where x=independently organized TED event. At our TEDxShanghai event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
The first event is scheduled for June 15, 2009 at M1NT Shanghai during the Shanghai International Film Festival. It is being organized by Chinameme under official license by TED.
TEDxShanghai will be brought to life with the help of a select group of companies committed to supporting the power of ideas. If your company is interested in sponsoring, please contact us.
