our main event

TEDxZurich’s annual main event is where some of the world’s leading thinkers and doers are invited to share what they are most passionate about.

This year’s theme “Full Spectrum,” is an event dedicated to exploring the diverse range of human experiences, ideas, and perspectives through science, technology and innovation. Full Spectrum is a term that is adapted to mean the rich use of multiple technologies, formats and approaches for the most powerful possible impact on an audience.

WHAT iS TEDxZurich?

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.) TEDxZurich has a focus on topics related to the city of Zurich and its surroundings, but also caters to bring ideas, knowledge and talks about broader topics
