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, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. 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).

Annabel Almond

Hello, I am Annabel and I am fourteen and my goal in life is to learn more about topics that confuse or intrest me.

Kateryna Sokolova-Rudakova

Hi, I’m Kateryna, a 17-year-old student from Ukraine who loves uncovering the untold stories of the past. I’ve always been fascinated by how history shapes people’s lives and perspectives, and growing up during challenging times for my country has taught me the value of understanding history. My TEDx talk was inspired by my grandmother, whose incredible journey through the Soviet Union offers a unique and deeply personal lens on an era that many see as purely dark.

Markus Miklauschina

My name is Markus Miklauschina, I am 17 years old, and my core interest in the dynamics and motivations of modern society played heavily into the inspiration for my talk.

Mary Obafemi

My name is Mary Obafemi and I’m 16-years-old. I’ve always been curious about the far flung nature of space and its possible inhabitants.

Michael Mulryne

I’m in year 10 and since I was first introduced to AI I was captivated by how it works given that engineering is one of my passions. I want to carry on learning about the powerful application that is Artificial Intelligence as I think it will begin to shape the world as we know it.
