The acronym, TED, stands for Technology, Education + Design. TEDx is TED-licensed, but independently organized and funded. We ignite local curiosity, conversation and hope by highlighting voices and inspiring (nonbiased, non-political) ideas that matter within and to the community. We offer leadership opportunities that enhance citizen leadership through collaborative interactions and mind-opening curation + conversation. Our events bring people together to tackle local issues. By finding and featuring innovators, we provide a platform for new local entrepreneurs. We provide art installations and experiences designed to expand/open the mind.

Giving voice to expansive ideas and disruptive concepts that enhance the way we see, connect, and evolve within our mountain community.
TEDx is TED-licensed, but independently organized. We ignite local curiosity, conversation and hope by highlighting voices and inspiring (nonbiased, non-political) ideas that matter within and to the community. We host a full and half-day events featuring short (~10-minute), well-crafted talks and experiences that highlight ideas to improve humankind overall, within these 3 basic categories, but especially as they relate to concepts and ideas unique to Summit County. Our live talks are also professionally recorded and shared on TED’s official well-respected and wide-reaching digital platform—with the potential to reach millions worldwide.
Our initiative uniquely brings our local community together in a meaningful way, creating bonds and conversations that enrich the experience of both living and visiting here. Our events reach 500-750 people live and thousands post-event on TED’s official YouTube channel. We highlight local voices and ideas, bringing them to a global stage/reach, representing a deeper, thoughtful, intellectual and artistic side of Summit County.
