Our REMIX Salons happen about once per quarter and feature TED speakers and experts as guest facilitators. An "only in New York" event, REMIX salons connect our community to the best thinkers in New York in ways that allow a deeper exploration of a theme or topic as they participate in a dynamic and insightful discussion.
Unlike most TEDx events which focus on a presentation format, TEDxNewYorkSalon is designed by our team of curators to spark conversation and dialogue, throughout the event. Rather than spotlighting individual speakers or facilitators, we create the soft space for hard conversation. During these gatherings, we screen one evocative TED Talk (via projector) and follow-up with a lively conversation afterward.
