At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)<\/p>\n<h3>About TED<\/h3>\n<p>TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or fewer) delivered by today\u2019s leading thinkers and doers. Many of these talks are given at TED\u2019s annual conference in Vancouver, British Columbia, and made available, free, on TED.com. TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Nandan Nilekani, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Sal Khan and Daniel Kahneman.<\/p>\n<p>TED\u2019s open and free initiatives for spreading ideas include TED.com, where new TED Talk videos are posted daily; the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as translations from thousands of volunteers worldwide; the educational initiative TED-Ed; the annual million-dollar TED Prize, which funds exceptional individuals with a \u201cwish,\u201d or idea, to create change in the world; TEDx, which provides licenses to thousands of individuals and groups who host local, self-organized TED-style events around the world; and the TED Fellows program, which selects innovators from around the globe to amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.<\/p>\n<p>Follow TED on Twitter at <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/TEDTalks\">twitter.com\/TEDTalks<\/a>, on Facebook at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TED\">facebook.com\/TED<\/a> or Instagram at <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/ted\">instagram.com\/ted<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How many times have you heard a conversation start out with \u201cThis might sound crazy, but\u2026?\u201d Some of the best ideas are born from these conversations, and that is exactly what organizers of TEDxChattanooga are hoping.
