What is TEDxUQ ?
TEDxUQ is an annual, independently organised TEDx event that first started in 2013 at The University of Queensland.
Following TED’s mission and values, TEDxUQ believe in the power of ideas to inspire and change our daily lives. Thus, we offer the platform for passionate and inspiring individuals to come together and share their stories.
Run entirely by a team of passionate volunteers, including undergraduate and post graduate UQ students, TEDxUQ aims to foster an inclusive and diverse community to encourage everyone to share insights, explore ideas, and create a positive change.
Celebrating our eleventh-year anniversary in 2024, TEDxUQ continues the commitment to curate a TED-like experience for the UQ and wider Brisbane communities. Join us on our journey as we continue to celebrate innovative ideas and inspire change at TEDxUQ 2024: Pulse Rhythm of Change.
What is TEDx ?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
What is TED ?
TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading, often in the form of short talks delivered by leading thinkers and doers. Many of these talks are given at TED Conferences, intimate TED Salons and thousands of independently organised TEDx events around the world. Videos of these talks are made available, free, on TED.com and other platforms. Audio versions of TED Talks are published to TED Talks Daily, available on all podcast platforms.
