TEDxLake Hills Youth

A Reality of Infinite Possibilities

Took placeOctober 19, 2024
LocationRedmond, Washington, United States
FormatYouth
VENUE: Redmond Library TIME: 12-2 PM PST In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations). With TEDx Lake Hills Youth, we aim to provide a platform where youth can passionately call for change, and inspire others to imagine a limitless future. Each of our speakers have a centralized idea in their talk that they believe is worth spreading to the community, and we are thrilled to give them this opportunity. From topics ranging from hustle culture, to the power of leadership, to DEI in healthcare, the talks our speakers have crafted are bound to amaze and inspire any audience member. To support these brilliant youth, be inspired, and experience a TEDx talk, attend TEDx Lake Hills Youth!
