TEDx events are independently-organized events that can span many subject areas in Technology, Entertainment and Design(TED). Students have used the TEDx conference model to create opportunities for spreading awareness about Innovation and Entrepreneurship, using the highly recognized TED brand.
A TEDx makes sense for a campus that has numerous innovation and entrepreneurship offerings, but a general lack of awareness amongst faculty and students about the importance of cultivating these skills. A TEDx can be focused on innovation and entrepreneurship to inspire a campus community by showcasing examples of innovative faculty research, successful entrepreneurial alumni and current students who have commercialized technology and acheived positive economic, societal and environmental impact.
