Graduation is a significant moment in our lives; it represents a major step in our personal evolution. It is not always an easy step to take, with its contradictory mix of fear and excitement. However, venturing into the unknown provides us with a great opportunity for personal growth.

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)
