What is TEDx?

TEDx is a series of local, self-organized events that bring people together for a TED-like experience. TEDxViikki is a blend of TED Talks with global speakers that ignite thought-provoking based on life and professional experiences. 


Our event will feature speakers who have experienced the best and worst of life. We fuse these stories to find the thread that holds us together. While TED provides overall guidance, the TEDxViikki event is independently organized.
