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 call TEDx (place), where x=independently organized TED event. At our TEDx (place) 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.

Why TEDxEdges?

Our event is called TEDxEdges and is a unique one-day exclusive unique inspiration event, held for the 2nd year running and this year it will take place the October 1st, 2010 in the Teatro Municipal de Portimão, Algarve.

TEDxEdges gathers some 400 creative and active thinkers in the after Summer in the Algarve – from entrepreneurs to artists – and is all about ideas: inspiring, discovering, generating and sharing ideas worth spreading in various areas, with the Algarve as the background theme, debating the technological models to be adopted by Portugal, and confronting those policies with other international practices.

In order to participate in the event you must actively contribute to its activities – present an idea to discuss, host an activity or actively contribute to one, or just be willing to network a lot with other people. Participation is free. If you're interested in participating as a participant you can register at http://tedxedges.com/register
