If you’ve never heard of TedX or TedX talks, where have you been?
If you don’t know what they are or what they do, then you’re about to have your mind blown!
Quite simply, TedX is designed to help communities, organisations and individuals spark conversation via the use of TedX presenters and online video content.
The best thing about TedX is the range of different subjects which are spoken about and how those subjects can have an effect on you and/or your business.
From economic growth and mathematics to digital innovation and politics – there’s a little something for everyone.
So long as it resonates with a particular audience or community and it’s informative, it’s worth talking about.
Oh, and guess what….
this could work wonders for your business!
All you need to do is; apply for a Ted licence, select a TedX video (or two) which you think will get your colleagues brains ticking, serve tea and coffee in a relaxed atmosphere, create some activity based games – and you’re away!
Features of the TedX business program include:
- Intellectual property rights to the TEDx brand for an internal event (in line with the TEDx license rules)
- Dedicated TEDx Business support to ensure your success with the program
- Invitation to attend gatherings for TEDx Business organizers for knowledge sharing
- Access to TEDxHub, a TEDx platform for global knowledge sharing and best practice
- Access to TEDx staff webinars and training
- Opportunity to attend TEDx events that run parallel to TED events
- Option to live stream your TEDx event to one other company location (additional locations at additional charge)
(Business events range in all sizes from intimate, salon-style experiences to larger gatherings. Click here for more information).
Imagine creating a unique opportunity to spotlight changemakers within your organisation and/or a culture of innovation in which various departments can come together and make changes for the better. How cool would that be!??
Just so you get some insight into how exciting this can be, we’ve picked out some of the video content were talking about. It really is something special.
… Oh, and it’s not all serious. Ted presenters add that little ‘tongue in cheek’ element to their content, which is the another reason why we think it’s so popular.
