TED2024  

ideas change everything

TED2024 marks the 40th anniversary of TED. TED started as an annual conference, bringing together people to think about Technology, Entertainment, Design and all that connected them. This convergence sparked powerful new ideas capable of deeply inspiring the people.

Since 2006, it has become a global movement that allows people to share their stories and inspiration more broadly, with the tagline “Ideas Worth Spreading.”

As we look forward to the next years, it’s time for us to make a more confident assertion of what makes TED content special. Ideas Change Everything.

Everyone has their own part to play. We invite you to double down on your commitment to lifelong learning andin sparking a brighter tomorrow.
