About TEDx Providence

At TEDxProvidence, we celebrate the power of people and their ideas which inspire, challenge, and transform. Powerful ideas that range from the simple to the sublime.  Bold visions of human potential, we bring together a community of curious minds to explore what lies boldly beyond today.

What is TEDx?

TEDx brings the spirit of TED’s mission of ideas worth spreading to local communities around the globe. TEDx events are organized by curious individuals who seek to discover ideas and spark conversations in their own community. TEDx events include live speakers and recorded TED Talks, and are organized independently under a free license granted by TED. Our event is called TEDxProvidence, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxProvidence 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.
