About Us
About TEDx,
x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. 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.)
About TED

Nandan Nilekani, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Sal Khan and Daniel Kahneman.
The annual TED Conference takes place each spring in Vancouver, British Columbia. TED's
media initiatives include TED.com, where new TED Talks are posted daily; TED Translators,
which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as translations from volunteers
worldwide; the educational initiative TED-Ed. TED has established The Audacious Project that
takes a collaborative approach to funding ideas with the potential to create change at
thrilling scale; TEDx, which supports individuals or groups in hosting local, self-
organized TED-style events around the world, and the TED Fellows program, helping
world-changing innovators from around the globe to amplify the impact of their remarkable

About TEDxKIET
TEDx KIET is an independently organized TED event focused on bringing together, speakers and
participants under one roof to strike up conversations that matter. Following the dynamics
of TED talks, TEDxKIET aims to bring the same format for the students of KIET Group of
Institutions. TEDx talks are a great way to improve general knowledge. They not only
enlighten students about any specific field but also enriches them with the gist from a huge
diversity of subjects, directly from the insiders.
The club TEDxKIET was established in March 2018, with the sole motive of stimulating the
interest of students to the zestful domain of TED talks. The first edition of TEDxKIET
revolved around the theme “The World is our Playground” which witnessed one of the most
exceptional experiences in the history of KIET. Since then this club works to enlighten the
students by bringing the revolutionary talks.
