TED talks are well known around the world for their presentation of ideas in an entertaining format. What started 34 years ago as a simple notion to combine Technology, Entertainment, and Design (TED) at one symposium has led to the creation of a global nonprofit media organization whose mission is to disseminate knowledge.
TEDx talks were created in 2009. Unlike TED, they are independently organized and community led, but licensed by TED to use the name and TED content. The license lasts for one year, and licensees must reapply each year.
In some districts, TEDx talks bring the world to the area. According to Tracy Graziani, the professional photographer and owner of Graziani Multimedia who applied to TED on the community’s behalf, Mansfield intends to turn the flow of information the other way. She said:
“I really believe cities like Mansfield get forgotten. With the urbanization of our country, smaller cities and towns are disappearing into the background. ... I think there are some very unique ideas and perspectives that we can make to the world.”
Graziani is hoping to have Mansfield’s first TEDx talk take place sometime before the end of 2018. Flyers and Posters can be highly effective ways to advertise such events.
