About TEDActive

TEDActive is an opportunity to let your mind travel the world of ideas while watching the live-hosted TED2011 program in a comfortable, customizable space. When the talks are over, your conversations with other passionate people begin -- a chance to engage in inspiring discussions and projects.

What sets TEDActive apart is that it’s not a pre-set conference. Think of it as open-source TED, where you get to shape the program and get involved. This means that in addition to the dynamic experiences built into the conference schedule, attendees can:

-give their own talks at TEDYou
-host workshops
-lead and propose inventive activities
-participate in projects to create action around ideas
-or just sit back, relax and absorb

Included in the TEDActive mix are TED leaders from around the world who are helping to foster TED's mission of spreading ideas: Volunteer translators, independent TEDx event organizers, top commenters, rock-star TED Prize wish contributors and spectacular past TED Fellows. Special workshops create opportunities for these community members to meet face-to-face and exchange best practices.

A pass to TEDActive costs $3,750.
