The expansion of TEDWomen
We launched TEDWomen in 2010 to amplify the dynamic work and ideas of women worldwide. Since then, we've produced more than 500 TEDWomen Talks with over 500 million views and bridged the gender gap across TED’s stages and platforms. We’re at a new chapter in our quest for change.
TEDNext marks a thrilling expansion of the TEDWomen mission. It broadens the program’s gender lens, embracing new ideas and fresh voices from all communities to engage and inspire the next generation of changemakers. TEDNext, taking place this October, allows the TEDWomen community to reach new realms of possibility and inclusion.
This is our pledge to a horizon that knows no bounds. The expansion is a multiplication of perspectives that welcomes everyone working towards a brighter, more just world. Anchored by the unwavering foundation of the TEDWomen community, TEDx organizers will continue to host annual TEDxWomen events, adding to the impressive count of more than 2000 events in more than 135 countries around the world.

Your conference experience
Watch TED Talks from 40+ speakers in the theater, learn from interviews and experience soul-stirring musical performances.
Not all great ideas are shared from the stage; some require closer exploration and broader participation. Ideas come to life in these expert-led learning experiences, in-the-field workshops, activities and excursions — all curated with an unparalleled understanding of what makes these sessions sing (yes, sometimes literally).
Witness how vibrant dinner conversations pave the way for lifelong connections, culminating in glorious celebrations and ridiculously fun dance floor moments with friends.
Meet dynamic thinkers, dreamers, creators and visionaries to share your own ideas and aspirations. This kind and generous community offers you support, guidance and wisdom as you write your next chapter.
This award-winning networking app will be your conference companion. See your personalized schedule, view the attendee and speaker list, plus use it year-round to send messages and stay connected.
