TEDxReno

TEDxReno is an independently organized licensee of the TED organization, a renowned global nonprofit with a 40-year legacy. TED is celebrated for its conferences featuring short TED Talks that engage millions and have collectively amassed several billion views. The TED community believes in the transformative power of ideas centered around Technology, Entertainment, and Design to change attitudes, lives, and ultimately, the world. In this spirit, TED created the TEDx program—independently organized, TED-like events designed to inspire innovation and share “ideas worth spreading” within local communities. TEDxReno embodies this mission by curating a platform where leading-edge thinkers and doers share their insights through short presentations that tackle humanity’s toughest questions with creativity, enterprise, and optimism. Our events are produced by dedicated volunteers who are passionate about fostering dialogue and connection within the Reno community. TEDxReno talks are not only shared live but also uploaded to the TEDx YouTube Channel, which boasts over 35 million followers. Collectively, videos from TEDxReno and its predecessors have reached over 100 million viewers, amplifying the voices and ideas that matter most to us. Additionally, TEDxReno Salons provide an intimate setting for deeper discussions on specific topics. These smaller gatherings encourage community members to engage with thought leaders, share perspectives, and explore pressing issues in a relaxed atmosphere. Each Salon aims to cultivate ongoing conversations that inspire action and connect individuals who are passionate about making a difference. Join us as we explore the ideas that inspire action, challenge the status quo, and ignite conversations that lead to meaningful change. Together, we can harness the power of innovative thinking to shape a brighter future for all!
