TEDxUniversityofDelaware

TEDxUniversityofDelaware is excited to invite speaker applications for our Fall 2025 event! We are seeking ideas worth spreading from all areas of campus and our community!  

TEDxUniversityofDelaware’s community-wide event will be organized around the theme of “pivot.” Life is a series of turning points – moments when some or all of us must suddenly shift direction, alignment, strategy – and embrace a new unknown. We seek applications for ideas and speakers for this upcoming dynamic event that explores the art of adaptation, resilience and transformation in our ever changing world.

This theme was selected to inspire multidisciplinary and transformative ideas consistent with the principles of TED, a nonprofit organization devoted to ideas worth spreading. The committee is especially interested in making the talks as diverse as possible, both culturally and by topic. Talks do not need to be limited to covering topics of pivot or mention the theme in title or content.

The full application is due March 16, 2024, by 11:59pm– available on our website www.tedx.udel.edu/apply

Watch previous speakers at: www.tedx.udel.edu

Faculty, staff, students (undergraduate and graduate), alumni, parents, family members, and local community members are eligible to apply to speak.
