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).

My name is Fabian Sanchez (32), and I’ve been working remotely for the past two years as a Business Development Manager at Interprefy, a Swiss company. Alongside that, I’ve spent the last three years growing as a content creator, now with over 96k followers on TikTok and 43k on Instagram.In a world where social media often rewards perfection, building a personal brand that’s authentic and intentional is far more powerful than chasing likes. By sharing your real story and values, you can create genuine, lasting connections online—without losing yourself in the process.

Karolina Žakaitytė

student
Hey, my name is Karolina, and I am a student in gr. 9. Apart from school I attend many clubs and programs in order to develop my skills and interests. I am always choosing between school, my clubs, family, my friends and more. But when everyone else is telling you what you're supposed to quit, choose, prioritise it gets more and more difficult to remember what you want. During the event, I will be sharing my experiences with pressure and choosing what I want to do now and in the future.

Our main example is aerial gymnastics and how Monika is motivated enough not to let go of it. Also how hobbies help you find and/or increase your motivation. Motivation is a big part of our lives, so we will help YOU find your own unique motivation, so that your life would become easier.
