The purpose of TEDxUofT is to promote free knowledge and inspiration from the world’s most inspired thinkers. It's to allow a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other.
We hope to find speakers who are brave enough to tell us their stories, their worries, their journey, and their dreams.
We want them to spark and question ideas, but also engage and inspire those around them. In every community found at each campus of the University of Toronto you will find the very best in their fields, and the new generations that will follow in their steps.
They will lead in efforts to create, innovate, and contribute to the future.
