TED is: TED is an annual event where some of the world’s leading thinkers and doers are invited to share what they are most passionate about. The event is broader still, showcasing ideas that matter in
any discipline. Attendees have called it “the ultimate brain spa” and “a four-day
journey into the future.” The diverse audience — CEOs, scientists, creative's,
philanthropists — is almost as extraordinary as the speakers, who
have included Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon,
Sir Richard Branson, Philippe Starck and Bono.
