About TEDActive

TEDActive is TED's parallel conference in Palm Springs; for five days this February, 700 curious and energetic leaders will immerse themselves in TED Talks while engaging in a more creative and casual setting - encouraging them to tinker, explore, and share. TEDActive is a unique experience that provides an intellectual journey through critical conversation, joyful exchange, and deep thought. Experience TED like never before - in person and in action.

This year's conference theme is: The Young. The Wise. The Undiscovered . The best moments at TED have often come from unexpected places, and this year, we're pushing that to a new level. This past spring, we staged a global talent search to bring together the most remarkable lineup in TED's history. A series of TED salons in 14 cities around the world helped us discover a broad array of thinkers and doers, and a selection of them have been invited to California to share their work with the world, as part of an extraordinary roster of speakers and performers.
