In the spirit of “ideas change everything,” 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. At TEDxChattanooga events, live speakers and musicians spark inspiration, discussion, and connection in a smaller and more intimate group setting. Individual TEDx events, including ours, are 100% self-organized and are not funded by TED.
