TED's mission of "Ideas Worth Spreading" now
reaches far beyond the yearly conferences, encompassing a
variety of projects and initiatives that seek to leverage
the power of ideas to change the world.
Along with two annual conferences -- the TED Conference on the West Coast each spring, and the TEDGlobal Conference in Edinburgh, UK, each summer -- TED now includes the award-winning TED Talks video series, the Open Translation Project, the inspiring TED Fellows and TEDx programs, the social media platform TED Conversations, and the annual TED Prize.
