Centuries have built a powerful network of research and scholarship that is vast and intertwined. The passions and actions that inspire this network are sometimes unseen, unheard, and untamed. But the results are ever-reaching. At the University of Georgia, we plant seeds of research and scholarship every day. And now at TEDxUGA 2023, we will explore how these seeds have taken root and flourished into ideas with the power to change the world.
Every year, a carefully selected group of UGA faculty, alumni, and students gather together at TEDxUGA to share their philosophies, art, inspiration, and ideas worth spreading.

What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxUGA, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxUGA event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized. Learn more about TEDx.
