Technology, Entertainment and Design, TED

discipline, whether it be science, business or
global issues, in some 100 languages.
The independently organised TEDx events

communities around the world.

3. TEDx
TEDxAmsterdam is an annual event organised by a team of skilled and

Each TEDx event is unique in its content and design but shares certain
features with all events organised around the world.
TEDx events are planned and coordinated independently under a
license from TED.

12. Partners & TEDxAmsterdam
Together with our partners, we are realising
TEDxAmsterdam.
We make sure our partners are satisfied, connected
and involved with the event, before, during and
after.
With the 9th edition of TEDxAmsterdam coming up
this year, and the 10th anniversary edition in 2018,
we have attractive formats of together making the
impossible possible.

13. Partner Networking Opportunities
In previous editions we have noticed that partners
like to exchange information and build relationships
with other partners.
For this reason, we will organise several online and
offline partner activities including partner events in
July and October, meetings with speakers prior to
the events, and a dedicated online TEDxAmsterdam
Partner communication platform.

14. Who will be there?
TEDxAmsterdam is a great way to get in touch with inspiring individuals and
entrepreneurs in an unconventional and creative way, such as startups, dedicated
young professionals, creatives and CEOs.

15. Talks vs. Performances
In addition to the inspiring talks
on stage, we programme a wide
range of interdisciplinary
performances both on- and
offstage.
Together with the TEDx
partners, foyers are transformed
into interactive experiences that
allow the guests to connect in
surprising ways linked to the
theme of the event, “One Step
Beyond”.

16. Why TEDxAmsterdam?
TEDxAmsterdam provides a stage for the sharing of
new ideas and inspiration with attendees and the city
of Amsterdam, as well as audiences around the world.
We aspire to establish healthy, sustainable and
valuable partnerships, appealing to both the TEDx
Partners, their stakeholders and the TEDx Guests.
