Welcome to TEDxKU

Event: Friday, April 17th at Eaton Hall on the University of Kansas Campus beginning at 6:35 PM.

About us

TEDxKU

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 TEDxKU, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxKU event, event organizers 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. We are currently planning the Spring 2026 talk!
