简介
TED Talks in NYC pairs TEDs signature Ideas Worth Spreading talks with compelling discussions examining these topics and how they effect and influence our great City and the New Yorkers who live here. Started in 1984, TED is a nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. What began as conferences dedicated to three worlds Technology, Entertainment, Design has become ever broader. The annual TED conferences, in Long Beach and Edinburgh, bring together the worlds most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives. TED makes the best talks and performances from TED and their partners available to the world, for free. Each of the ten TED Talks in NYC programs showcase selected TED talks concerning global topics-including the environment, gender issues, homelessness, disabilities and psychology among others-and distill them to the local NYC level.
