In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx - local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.  At a TEDxevent, 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 TEDxprogram, but individual TEDxevents are self-organized.  TEDx is part of a revolution in global education made possible by local organizers wanting to engage their communities.  Every week, in multiple cities, people are coming together to pursue ideas worth spreading.
