The future is in your hands!

From the beginning, TEDxMETU’s mission was to create a platform that allows us to think about the most important topics of our life. In 2022, TEDxMETU focused on one of today’s most pressing issues: sustainability.

To our greates joy, the conference turned out just as we dreamed: a thought-provoking, inspiring, change-driven experience. We are hopeful that this experience managed to influence many of us and might even changed our attitude towards sustainability. We know that this common journey has just begun… We won’t stop here.

We believe that together we can be the change!

About TED

TED is a nonpartisan nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks. TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 110 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world.

TED conferences with their thought-provoking and entertaining18-minute long or shorter presentations offer an incredibly intense and inspiring experience.

TED has totally changed the conference experience as it put the previous norm into a new dimension and it has evolved into probably the most exciting, the most requested and the most serious, non-professional conference in the world.

At TED conferences the presentations are recorded on a video which is available at TED.com after the event.

Loads of well-known and less-known performers have appeared on the TED stage so far, quite often giving an unconventional, thought-provoking and stimulating presentation: Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon, Sir Richard Branson, Elizabeth Gilbert, Philippe Starck, Alain de Botton, Isabel Allende, Gordon Brown, David Deutsch or Bono.

The audience of TED comes typically from a heterogeneous background who are open, intelligent, positive and socially active.

TED creates such an intense and stimulating environment where participants can get deeper knowledge of each other and therefore the world and also themselves, it can inspire and enrich the way we think and all these can lead to new solutions and projects.
