TEDxSoCal Thriving!

Thriving is more than just surviving; it's growing, prospering, and flourishing. This day-long event explores how communities, organizations, and individuals can thrive mentally, physically, and artistically. Attendees will have opportunities to hear and discuss "ideas worth spreading" from innovators in well-being, creative cultures, sustainability and lifelong learning. Come be entertained and inspired.

 

Tickets to TEDxSoCal are now on sale!

What is TEDx?

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has 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 TEDxSoCal, where x=independently organized TED event. At our TEDxSoCal event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.

 

The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized. Learn more about TEDx.

That is a pretty good price for a TEDx. I went to TEDxUSC in 2010. It blew my mind.

 

Now...where do I have an extra $40...
