TedX Vancouver: Ted Talks Coming to Vancouver

TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design), an invitation-only event where the world’s leading thinkers and doers gather to find inspiration has produced a spin off, TEDx, that is coming to Vancouver.

A former TEDx speaker, local blogger, photographer and all around interesting guy, Kris Krug explained the idea behind TEDx in a recent blog post:

“They just recently announced TED x which is a franchised community version of the bigger TED conferences. They’re encouraging folks to take the spirit and format of TED and have local events focused on the coolest in technology, entertainment, and design. It’s a great concept that initiates community support, discovery and definitely promotes ideas that are worth spreading.”
