TEDx
Ιn 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.These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self - organized.
TEDx UniversityofMacedonia
TEDx UniversityofMacedonia is an independently organized TED-like event, which is run volunteerly by a team of approximately 22 students of University of Macedonia. Through ideas worth spreading our aspect is to develop an open platform where young people can share ideas, interact, innovate, discuss and change the university‘s community in a positive way. TEDx UniversityofMacedonia was organized for the first time 7 years ago when a young student dared to take the initiative to organize the first TEDx University event in Northern Greece. Since then, TEDxUniversityofMacedonia has managed to give voice to ideas worth spreading and constitute a reason for change and action in the community of universities and generally of young people of Thessaloniki.
