TEDxStanford 2012: Illumination

On May 19, 2012, Stanford University held the first-ever TEDxStanford, produced by the Office of Public Affairs in partnership with the Graduate School of Business and the School of Engineering. Whether you attended and want to reminisce or missed it and want to catch up, check out the videos of the speakers and performers from a remarkable day. We’ll add new talks and performances, two at a time in the coming weeks, so stay tuned. You can also see highlights from the event.

What is TEDx?

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 TEDxStanford, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxStanford 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.
