ABOUT

TEDxGeorgiaTech is an independently organized TEDx event in Atlanta, Georgia. We are proud to be run entirely by student volunteers. Our goal is to showcase ideas from our own community that inspire change on Georgia Tech campus and beyond. We host multiple events throughout the year, including a main TEDx conference in the Spring.

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.

Student Speaker Salon – Embark

November 2020

“Embark” - A word that describes uncertainty brought by the pandemic and the unique journey it has brought to each of our lives, was the theme of our salon for this year. The student speakers for the salon beautifully encompassed this theme and broadened our minds by giving talks related to the fourth dimension, how uncertainty is certainty, creativity breaking monotonous cycles and the empowering journey of making purpose.
