This year will bring amazing speakers and performers. It is wonderful to get to know our neighbors, to highlight incredible stories and celebrate diversity from Rhode Island communities and share important ideas worth spreading with the world! We hope that you will continue to support and join in for future events!
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. 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.
