Ideas Worth Spreading
TED is devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED is the convergence of Technology, Entertainment and Design. Independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world. TEDxYYC hosts a large event annually, bringing Calgarians and surrounding areas together to share ideas.
