WHAT IS TEDX?

TEDx is a global grassroots initiative born from TED's mission to uncover and share "ideas worth spreading." By bringing the spirit of TED to local communities worldwide, TEDx events create platforms for people to share innovative ideas, spark meaningful conversations, and inspire action. These independently organized events are run with passion and dedication, offering a unique opportunity to explore ideas that challenge perspectives and build connections.

At TEDxMississauga 2025, we’re proud to present this year’s theme: "Ripple Effects." This powerful theme delves into the interconnected nature of change, where even the smallest actions or ideas can create profound and far-reaching transformations. It’s a reminder that no contribution is too small to make a difference and that every spark has the potential to ignite a wave of influence.

"Ripple Effects" explores the cascading outcomes of innovation, kindness, creativity, and perseverance. Whether it’s a groundbreaking idea, a moment of generosity, or the relentless pursuit of a dream, the ripples created can spread across individuals, communities, and even the globe.

Through thought-provoking talks, captivating performances, and engaging experiences, TEDxMississauga 2025 will highlight the visionaries, dreamers, and changemakers who are creating these ripples of impact in their fields and beyond. It’s an event designed to inspire attendees to reflect on their own potential to contribute to the world, emphasizing that every small action has the power to spark global transformation.

Join us for an unforgettable experience that will leave you inspired to create your own ripple effects and empowered to make a difference in your community and the world. TEDxMississauga 2025 is not just about sharing ideas but it’s about building a future where every action counts and every idea has the potential to change the world.
