Jonathan Zaidman: As the Executive Director of San Diego-based non-profit, The 1:1 Movement, Jonathan Zaidman works to ensure that the city is as clean, green, healthy, and vibrant as possible. Jonathan has pieced together years of experience working on innovative, youth-based, and entrepreneurial projects in the non-profit, for-profit, and academic fields to develop the organization with his team. Jonathan says that he loves San Diego more than anyone he's ever met, which may or may not be true.

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. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion 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.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
