TEDxNorrköping    Evenings for Curious Minds Activities 2021 TEDxNorrköping Events were during 2020 cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope to be able to restart during 2021 in close cooperation with Campus Norrköping, Linköping University and also with Norrköping Science Park involved. There will, as before, be a few evening events with international, as well as national and local, speakers presenting ideas worth spreading in different areas. The slightly more informal Salon Events will be directed more towards the profiles and activities within Campus Norrköping and normally take place in the afternoon. The dates, the themes and the speakers will be advertised here when decided. Ideas and proposals are welcome! General information about  TEDxNorrköping. The talks TED, Technology-Entertainment-Design, has gained an enormous prestige, just growing from when the annual conferences started in its current form around 2005 with video recoded talks freely available on the Internet. One of the most popular speakers was Hans Rosling, who passed away 2017. Since 2009 TED, has offered the opportunity to apply for licenses for "independently organized local events" in the same spirit as the TED events. TEDxNorrköping has emerged from a group of people involved in the organization of The 13th International Conference on Thinking, ICOT-13, in Norrköping 2007. A conference with about 1300 participants from more than 30 countries. The aims now are very similar: To offer an arena where people across different sectors, disciplines, cultures, religions, ages, etc., can meet and share experience, views and ideas. To create a meeting-place for people who don't normally meet. The substantial footprints from the conference 2007 have encouraged us to initiate the TEDxNorrköping effort. TED and TEDx talks are recorded and uploaded to TED's own YouTube channel. The recording of the Stanford professor Carol Dweck's TEDxNorrköping Talk, The Power of Yet, has now gained over 11 million visits on the Internet. Neither speakers nor organizers get any fee at all for their contributions and efforts. However, many of the most coveted speakers are highly interested in being given the opportunity to present their ideas and have their talks distributed for free via TED and Youtube. Since 2011, there have now been 24 TEDxNorrköping events of different types, see Events here at: http://TEDxNorrkoping.com.
