Santa Cruz serves as a fertile ground where ideas incubate, converge, and spark innovation. The vibrant interplay of ideas, creative energy, and the rich tapestry of diversity within Santa Cruz County is the beating heart of TEDxSantaCruz.

SAVE THE DATE: APRIL 13, 2024!

We are currently immersed in the planning process for our upcoming event, scheduled for Friday, April 13, 2024, at the Crocker Theater.

The theme for this event is “Rising Together.”

Our “Rising Together” theme suggests a scale of collaboration that currently doesn’t exist.  As a society, we are facing huge challenges such as climate change, preserving natural resources, racism, poverty, lack of health care, homelessness, and educational inequalities.

 

How Do We ?

Our prospective speakers will address big ideas and solutions to challenges
at the local, regional, national and global levels.

We are actively accepting speaker applications who are Santa Cruz County residents or are located near Santa Cruz County for self applications. If you know of someone with a compelling message or possess one yourself that aligns with the TEDxSantaCruz mission, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

Deadline for Speaker/Performer Applications is December 3.
