What is TED?
TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short talks (18 minutes or less).
TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics —from science to business to global issues— in more than 100 languages.
It is an annual event that brings together some of the greatest thinkers and entrepreneurs around the world, such as Bill Gates, Frank Gehry, Sir Richard Branson, Philippe Starck and Bono.
What is TEDxIgualada?
TEDxIgualada is an independent, volunteer-run event which is part of TED’s TEDx programme and responds to the initiative of organising conferences at a local level, combining live talks with TEDTalks videos to offer a similar experience to that of TED conferences.
TEDxIgualada has emerged with the aim of promoting ideas, debate and reflections on current, important and relevant topics.
