TEDxSamsung celebrates TEDx’s fourth
TEDx is now 4! This past Saturday, March 23, TEDx celebrated this milestone with a global birthday party, convened by TEDx organizers, volunteers and fans worldwide. There were cakes, candles, wishes and even a kite or two — all paired with enough enthusiasm to last another four years and beyond.
With 6,417 events in 149 countries and 1,777 cities over the past four years, and now over 25,000 talks online, the TEDx program would be nothing without its ever-expanding network of dedicated and hard-working volunteers.
So, take a moment and toast them and 4 years of TEDx with a selection of favorite sweet treats and tweets from TEDx’s 4th:
