TEDxDurban 2023 conference

The theme centers around the concept of “pause” as a catalyst for introspection, growth, and creative development. The goal is to explore how these moments of reflection have played a pivotal role in shaping the perspectives and ideas of thought leaders, innovators, and changemakers.

By embracing the power of pause, we can harness its ability to inspire breakthroughs, refine strategies, and foster connections that lead to more impactful outcomes.

What is TEDx

TED which stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design is an organization on the media that has online free distribution talks. Its slogan is ideas worth spreading, and it was founded in 1984. Its primary focus is having talks on science, culture and academic topics.

 

 

TEDx, on the other hand, is an independent event like TED and anyone can organize it. Individuals who want to host a TEDx event are required to obtain a license from TED that shows that they have agreed to follow particular principles. They are non-profit events, but they may have an admission fee to cover their expenses.
