NOMINATE AN IDEA OR A SPEAKER FOR TEDxTUM 2024
Great ideas are not just worth sharing, they also have the strength to create a lasting impact. They might alter the audience’s current perspective, or even open them up to a completely new way of thinking.
WHAT MAKES AN IDEA WORTH SPREADING?
We’ve provided a short list to give you a hint of which ideas are worth spreading and which may not fit our stage.
GOOD IDEAS FOR TEDxTUM
- Groundbreaking and novel
- Controversial, challenging and invites to rethink a common perspective
- Backed by empirical evidence
- Makes the complex comprehensible to a broader audience
- Speaks of failure as well as success
- Presented with authenticity by a genuine speaker who aims to give the talk of their life
NOT-SO-GOOD IDEAS FOR TEDxTUM
- Ideas that have been covered many times before (especially on other TEDx stages)
- Sales pitch of a company or product
- Fundraising or crowdfunding pleas
- Purely motivational talks
- Has a person/the speaker at the center instead of an idea
