In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED 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 TEDxMcGill, where x = independently organized TED event. At our event, TED Talks and local, live speakers will be combined to spark deep discussion and connection among our attendees. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized. Learn more at: http://www.ted.com/tedx
