Independently-organized TED talks come to Orcas Island on March 5

Independently-organized TED talks come to Orcas Island on March 5

Tickets for the Orcas Iasland TEDx (Technology, Entertainment, Design) talks are now on sale at www.tedxorcasisland.com

Our conference will center on the theme of “Best of Both Worlds – the Potential in Polarity”.

What is TEDx? In the spirit of “ideas worth spreading”, TED has created TEDx, a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxOrcasIsland, where x = an independently organized TED event. At our TEDxOrcasIsland event, live speakers and video will combine to spark deep discussion and group connection. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.

There are a limited number of Early Bird Tickets at $75., the regular price is $95.

Catered Luncheon can be purchased with your ticket and will be served in the Madrona Room.

Our Speakers will be announced on Wednesday, February 3. See you on March 5th!
