TEDxCherryCreekHS 2024 TEDx Talk Application

Thank you for your interest in speaking at TEDxCherryCreekHS 2024!

In the spirit of TED’s mission, “ideas worth spreading”, TEDxCherrycreekHS 2024 is to spark conversations, collaborations, and change within and without the community. The theme of this TEDx event is The Digital Age. It is intended to be very broad to fit nearly any idea, but when creating your talk consider how it could fit under the The Digital Age umbrella.

We are looking for ideas that are

- Radically new - A showcase of fresh approaches to enduring problems - A challenge to our conceptions about what's possible - An exposure to cutting-edge research, technology, or design - A redefinition of the human experience

Presentation guidelines

- All presentations will be between 5 and 8 minutes in length, and the final length will be determined by the curation team - Presenters will not be paid for their talk - All presentations will be video recorded and uploaded to the TEDx YouTube channel for global viewing - Presenters must have copyright ownership of any images or video included in their talk - We welcome presenters from outside the Denver metro area on the condition that they provide their own transportation and lodging - Our team will support all presenters in developing their talk and preparing for the event

Before submitting your application, please review and abide by the TEDx Speaker Guide and the TEDx Content Guidelines.

All applications are due on midnight May 25, 2024 (Mountain Time). We will finalize speaker selections in mid June.

TEDxCherryCreekHS will be hosted at state-of-the-art The School House at Parker Arts (https://parkerarts.org/the-schoolhouse/) . We have the technology to support an immense variety of possible talks and demonstrations, and are open to working with you to cater our setup to you and your idea.
