Who Should Attend

Community-Minded, Life-Long Learners

Teachers & Students

For students, a single talk can alter a career direction, spark academic interests, creative confidence and ignite personal ambition. Join the dozens of high schools that have organized field days to TEDxAtlanta. 

2026 Hero 169
I expected the stage presenters to be amazing, but the whole thing -- from checkin to the lobby experiences to the between-session meals -- piqued my curiosity and got me thinking. Bravo!

I found it to be collaborative, supportive, innovative, friendly, encouraging, challenging, educational, and overwhelmingly positive. I've described it to friends as "having renewed my faith in humanity". Given the current political culture with so much finger pointing, negativity, divisiveness and judgement- to be surrounded by such gracious friendly people left me feeling hopeful and excited.

So well curated, not just the speakers, but the venue, the food. Loved the way the whole day was set up. The speakers were thought provoking, with clear ideas I hadn't heard before, and very accessible afterwards.

TEDx Atlanta 2019 was amazing! The experience was invaluable. From the yoga/relaxation room to the food and beverage vendors, it was definitely an event to remember.
