Do you think your talk idea aligns with the following? TEDx events should present informative talks, each one focused on a different and specific idea. Talks that limit their focus to the presenter’s personal journey or professional success - rather than ideas - are not ideal TEDx talks.
A great, well-formed idea can be one of two things: it can be something that’s new and surprising; an idea or invention that your audience has never heard about, or it can be a great basic idea (that your audience has maybe already heard) with a compelling new argument behind it that challenges beliefs and perspectives. An idea isn’t just a story, a list of facts, or a general overview of a topic - a good idea takes certain evidence or observations and draws a larger conclusion. *
