What happens in-between TEDxTUM events?
Our team puts a lot of love and energy into organizing our events, but we don’t stop there. Driven by our passion for spreading ideas and engaging people’s creativity, we put on smaller, invite-only events and activities as well as interactive, fun online and offline campaigns. We also highlight our past talks along with other ideas from the TEDx universe and beyond in themed editorials. This is our blog, where we collect and document all of this.
Do you have a fun, interactive idea for us to do, or an impactful project for our team to contribute to, or would you like to get involved yourself? Use the contact form to get in touch.

Kindness as a cure (Editorial #24)
A lot has happened in the last two years, and perhaps it seems like there is no more time to be kind. The pandemic is still raging, yet, we’re getting impatient; and that is problematic. Reflecting on this, we invite you to reconsider—starting from yourself. What can you do to improve the state of your networks, to maintain and improve your relationships?
It is, of course, understandable if the answers to your questions are not clearly apparent to you at this moment. But there exists a universal band-aid you can always apply to improve your being—be kind to yourself. Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping; because we can only help others if we are able to help ourselves.
The race to zero is on (Editorial #23)
The 2020’s are arguably one of the most important decades for climate change and action. We have one environment, one planet, one home but… for how much longer? What are we doing? What can we do? And what will happen? More questions than answers but that’s the start for you… How will the end unfold?
Answers, a sense of dread, hope… whatever it may be, don’t let it stop here. Look beyond what you know, learn more, do more. We have one environment, one planet, one home.
A look from above (Editorial #22)
Space is vast and mysterious, so mysterious that for a long time we used to look up for the answers, and sometimes we even found them. We have always been enthralled by space and space exploration, so what answers does it provide us?
Can we get closer to knowing what is out there? Maybe not, but we can gain something greater. The excitement, curiosity maybe even a slight bit of uncomfort you will feel, keep it and use it as the building block of your own exploration.

FROM OUR EVENTS
Speakers at TEDxTUMSalon 2019
This year, we shook things up. Our lineup of speakers was 100% female. Each speaker—intrepid and compelling in her own right—graced the stage of the TEDxTUMSalon 2019 event with an idea that changed the shape of the world around her.
Through these talks, we’ve watched the preposterous become possible: from walking trees on Earth to roving robots on asteroids, not to mention the ways that we can flip the script on travel for generations to come. As the concepts from our TEDxTUMSalon 2019 event come full circle, we invite you to ask yourself: what boundaries can we continue to break in the future? What is still within reach?
