TEDxDalhousieU partnered with the Dalhousie Student Union to bring independently organized TED events to Halifax and the surrounding Nova Scotia community. It is driven by a team of volunteers who are inspired by the mission and ideals of TED: Ideas Worth Spreading. 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.
