TEDxReno has announced the return of its internationally recognized daylong speaker series on April 6th, 2024.

RENO, NEVADA, UNITED STATES, February 23, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- TEDxReno has announced the return of its internationally recognized daylong speaker series. The event returns to the esteemed University of Nevada, Reno, Lawlor Events Center on April 6th, 2024, featuring live talks and exhilarating entertainment performances.

Once again, TEDxReno welcomes the Reno community to experience another incredible year of inspirational and motivational speakers who can captivate anyone’s attention. The independently organized event, licensed by TED, will feature local voices and TED Talks videos under the theme of DISRUPTION. Our extraordinarily accomplished line-up of speakers will bring together our audience as one while conveying how they can be their own instruments of positive change.

"We're excited about this year's speaker submissions and look forward to the expertise they will bring to our stage and the TEDxReno and audiences around the world," said event organizer Kaya Stanley.

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 in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event.

About TED
TED is on a mission to discover and spread ideas that spark imagination, embrace possibility and catalyze impact. Our organization is devoted to curiosity, reason, wonder and the pursuit of knowledge — without an agenda. We welcome people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world and engagement with others, and we invite everyone to engage with ideas and activate them in your community.

TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged. Today it spans a multitude of worldwide communities and initiatives exploring everything from science and business to education, arts and global issues. Aside from the hundreds of TED Talks curated from our annual conferences and published on TED.com, we produce original podcasts, short video series, animated TED-Ed lessons and TV programs that are translated into more than 100 languages and distributed via partnerships around the world. Each year, more than 3,000 independently run TEDx events bring people together to share ideas and bridge divides in communities on every continent. Through the Audacious Project, TED has helped catalyze nearly $3 billion in funding for projects that seek to make the world more beautiful, sustainable and just. In 2020, TED launched Countdown, an initiative to accelerate solutions to the climate crisis and mobilize a movement for a net-zero emission future.

TED is owned by a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation. Our aim is to help create a future worth pursuing for all.
