What is a Tedx Event?
TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxPanchgani where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxPanchgani event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion, inspiration, and connection in a small and select group.
Is a Tedx event intended to promote the speaker?
No, Tedx events are a platform for speakers who are experts in their fields to share ideas based on their past experiences and/or future plans. However the speakers follow a strict guideline set by TED ensuring that their talks cannot be about SELF PROMOTION.
How long is the “Talk” for?
Talks cannot be longer than 18 minutes (this is a mandatory guideline that we have to follow, set by TED), but each speaker may speak for as little or as long as they want, which might vary from 5-18 minutes.
What is the included with the ticket?
You are entitled to attend all talks (3 sessions) which are scheduled from 9:00am to 5:00pm, and the ticket also includes a goody bag, tea and snacks and buffet lunch. There will be some thought-provoking interactive sessions and interesting displays at the venue.
Can I attend only selective sessions?
Yes, but we recommend that you attend all sessions, as we don’t want to disturb speakers once a session starts. You might not be able to enter a session once it starts, so we recommend that you arrive early so that you don’t miss listing to your favorite speaker.
How long is the event for?
The event is planned from 9:00am to 5:00pm, Lunch is planned from 1:30 to 2:30, Tea and snacks will be provided in the morning and late afternoon.
