About this event

Don't miss Yale’s inaugural TEDxYale conference on February 4th, 2012. In recognition that Yale is an arena for innovation and excellence at every level of study, we have invited 26 Yale students, faculty, alumni and community leaders to speak.

Our theme for 2012 is “A Twist of Fate.” We are living in a time of momentous change, one which yields enormous uncertainty. We ask speakers to not just share their insight but their foresight: where is your field going, why is it important and how will it change the way we live?

TEDxYale has been met by overwhelmingly positive responses from the Yale community. Our first TEDxYaleSalon was standing room only at 150 people and our student speaker competition had 19 applicants whose videos have been watched 7,000 times and received over 1,000 votes on Facebook.
