TED’s mission is to discover and champion the ideas that will shape tomorrow. Powerful ideas, powerfully presented, can move us to feel something, to think differently, to take action and create a brighter future. TED finds these powerful ideas across disciplines and around the globe, from people who passionately seek a deeper understanding of the world and want to make a difference in it. TED’s spotlight, and its engaged, open-minded audience, help these ideas to create real impact: to shift one person’s perspective, to make a difference within a community or to spark global transformation. Ideas change everything.
