TED is a global nonprofit organization devoted to spreading compelling ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). The first ever TED conference held in 1984 covered talks in Technology, Entertainment and Design. Today, TED talks cover almost all topics — from science to business to issues that matter — in over 100 languages. A TEDx event is a TED-style event with talks and performances shared with the local community. TEDx events are fully planned and coordinated independently, on a community-by-community basis. The content and design of each TEDx event is unique and developed independently, but all of them have some features in common. A TEDxYouth event is a TEDx event that is oriented towards the youth of the local community. TEDxYouth@Vannarpettai is the first ever TEDx event that is going to be organized for the youth in the city. To know what TEDxYouth@Vannarpettai is, you have to experience it. If you’re a student waiting to be inspired by impactful speeches, please be our guest at our event.
