Welcome to TEDxOxford

TEDxOxford is an annual independently organised TED event. The day-conference brings together individuals who will hear from a collection of the world’s most interesting and remarkable minds.

But it is more than just an event. TEDxOxford is attempting to do something that has never been done before: deliver the inspiration of TED to our nation’s youth. We are guided by the notion that today’s students will become tomorrow’s leaders, and feel that it’s our responsibility to help them develop into the innovators that they will one day become.

TEDxOxford is proud to announce that its 2017 theme is 'X Changes Everything.' This conference will provide speakers with a platform to expose and share their thoughts on pivotal moments, events, and shifts that have culminated or will potentially culminate at fundamental progress in the world. Whether it be a world-shattering sociology critique or groundbreaking scientific discovery, a revolution in culture and fashion or a new thought in philosophy, our speakers will most certainly shed insight into the rapid changes that have befallen the world as a result of their individual or collective efforts. We look forward to seeing you at Oxford's New Theatre on February 5th, 2017.

What is TEDx

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 TEDxOxford, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxOxford event, TED Talks video 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.
