TEDxBerkeley is curated by UC Berkeley and the executive team from the Berkeley Computer Science Undergraduate Association (CSUA). Thanks to our sponsors, Dorsey & Whitney.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxBerkeley, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxBerkeley event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
