TED is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organizer devoted to discovering, debating, and spreading ideas that spark conversation, deepen understanding, and drive meaningful change worldwide, welcoming people from every discipline and culture who seek knowledge and connection. Since its beginnings in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment, and Design converged, TED has grown into a global ecosystem of conferences, freely available TED Talks, original podcasts, short video series, TED-Ed lessons, TV programs translated into more than 100 languages, and thousands of independently organized TEDx events held annually in communities on every continent. Through large-scale initiatives like The Audacious Project, Countdown, and TED Democracy, TED not only showcases “ideas worth spreading” but also catalyzes funding, collaboration, and action toward a more just, sustainable, and vibrant future.
