TEDxSeattle 2020: Other Side

Details

In a year no one predicted, how do we approach the other side?

The 2020 TEDxSeattle event brings together diverse speakers, community members like you, and ideas that define the future of our city and beyond. Expect the angles you haven’t seen and the perspectives you haven’t heard. To best further our mission of bringing you thought-provoking ideas, TEDxSeattle 2020 is completely free. Join a dedicated community ready to take a look at the other side.

TEDxSeattle is one of the largest TEDx events in the world, and this year we’re exploring the other side; The 2020 event will be 100% virtual (and 100% FREE) but don’t expect the same Zoom panels you’re used to from conferences in 2020. We’re putting a spin on it like only TEDxSeattle can, creating unique, engaging talks with some powerful speakers. If you’ve always wanted to come to a TEDxSeattle event, but cost or location stood in the way, this is your chance to join us to share ideas that inspire action.

Can’t wait to see you there!
