We need to build bridges of our own. The global TEDx theme has been localized to building bridges, and the theme of the TEDxWomen 2017 is ‘Bridges’. TEDxMendeWomen has adapted this to ‘Yes, We Can Build Bridges.’ At a TEDx event, TED Talk videos and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connections. TEDxMendeWomen is not organized by TED Conferences but is operated under a license from TED. TEDx is an international community that organizes TED-style events anywhere and everywhere — celebrating locally-driven ideas and elevating them to a global stage. TEDx events are produced independently of TED conferences, each event curates speakers on their own, but based on TED’s format and rules. TEDx events are fully planned and coordinated on a community-by-community basis. With the License Approval from TED.com to host TEDxMendeWomen coming up on the evening of October 4, 2017, we have been able to work as a team to make it a reality. Our Speaker and Performers are the inspiration epicenter of TEDxMendeWomen. The event will be live streamed on 3rd November 2017 and all TEDxMendeWomen Talks and performances will be uploaded and published on the global www.ted.com portal and the TEDx YouTube Channel. Our goal is to bring together bright minds to give talks that are idea-focused, and on a wide range of subjects, to foster learning, inspiration and provoke conversations that matter. TEDWomen is a three-day conference about the power of women and girls to be creators and change-makers. The program of speakers, workshops, events — and daring discussions — has sparked some of TED’s most iconic moments yet. TEDWomen brings together a global community of people interested in exploring how change begins: with innovative thinkers who catalyze ideas toward action. Over the past few years, TEDWomen and TEDxWomen have launched some powerful ideas into the world. TEDWomen 2017’s theme is Bridges and this year’s global TEDWomen event is taking place in New Orleans, LA, USA from November 1-3, 2017.
