2026 Theme

The Power of the Pivot: Reinventing Ourselves in an Age of Disruption

The old playbooks don’t apply anymore. Whether it’s AI reshaping careers, burnout impacting workplace values, or personal upheaval forcing people to start over, we’re all being asked to adapt, and fast. But reinvention isn’t just survival; it’s a skillset.

This theme spotlights the strategies, mindsets, and moments that define how we can pivot — not just react — when everything changes.

Speaker Applications

Applications will open on September 1, 2025. Please check back at that time.

What is TEDx?

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDx Westminster, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDx Westminster event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.

This independent TEDx event is operated under license from TED.
