TEDxAlmedalen 2013

Seamless societies, unlimited communication, growing interdependence, and globalization. And yet unrestrained pleasure, extravagant personalities and civil disobedience. What happens when we cross boundaries?

The theme of this year’s TEDxAlmedalen, a midnight seminar in Visby, is boundlessness.

  • 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 call TEDx Almedalen, where x=independently organized TED event. At our TEDx Almedalen 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.
