TED is all about sharing ideas worth spreading, and here at TEDxUF, we’re on a mission to make that happen. Most people know and love Gainesville for the Florida Gators, but we are also home to captivating people and places. Amplifying the voices of students, staff, community members, and our TEDxUF team, join us in this year’s season of Let’s (TED) Talk About It!
TED has become a global phenomenon with millions of people worldwide engaging with their online talks and in-person conferences, but its success wasn’t always obvious. In this episode, we dive into the history of TED and discover how the non-profit changed the world since its first event in 1984.
