About the TED Conference in Vancouver Canada
Technology & Telecom , Conferences & Symposiums
Canada
Ends: Apr 19, 2024
DESCRIPTION:
TED was created in 1984 by Richard Saul Wurman when he noticed a synergy between technology, entertainment, and design. The first TED included a demo of the compact disc, the ebook, and cutting-edge 3D graphics from Lucasfilm. Remember, this was 1984—the World Wide Web would not be created until 1991, and smartphones would not exist until 2007!
Also presenting was mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot who demonstrated how to map coastlines using his developing theory of fractal geometry.
TED lost money that first year, and it would take another six before Wurman would give it another shot by partnering with Harry Marks.
The second time around, he struck gold, and the TED conference quickly became one of the most anticipated annual events in intellectual and creative circles in the seaside town of Monterey, California. Over the years, it expanded its coverage areas, bringing in the brightest minds from multiple industries and areas of expertise. By 2000, TED grew and went not-for-profit.
In addition to the original TED Conference, the non-profit has added the following events services:
• TEDGlobal, held in locations around the world
• TED Prize, which grants its winners one wish to change the world
• TED Talks, an audio and video podcast series
Attendance at a TED conference is by application. To apply, go to http://www.ted.com.
