TEDxUIUC aims to provide a venue for some of the world’s top thinkers and most remarkable doers to inspire and create a better world. The event is organized annually at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign by a group of students led by Cristian Mitreanu. Follow TEDxUIUC on Twitter (twitter.com/TEDxUIUC).


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 TEDxUIUC, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxUIUC 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. More at TED.com/TEDx.
