About TEDx
TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is an annual conference held in California since 1984.
TED’s motto—“ideas, worth spreading”—gathers scientists, businessmen, politicians, artists, musicians and engineers on one stage.
The speakers share much in common: bright ideas, undisputed influence in their respected fields of activity and the ability to talk about sophisticatedthings in a simple manner.
TED videos are being distributed freely through TED.com and since 2009, independent TED conferences called TEDx are being held internationally.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
TEDx events aim to spark deep discussions and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x=independently organized TED event.
The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
TEDxNyarugenge is a group of enthusiasts and dreamers, inspired by TED’s mission.
We believe in the power of ideas, knowledge, hope and breakthroughs, in their capacity to change the world, to unite and inspire for better future.
Our goal is to spread these wonderful ideas through community and action.
