The TEDx Program is designed to help communities, organizations and individuals to spark conversation and connection through local TED-like experiences.
At TEDx events, a screening of TED Talks videos —
or a combination of live presenters and TED Talks videos — sparks deep conversation and connections at the local level. TEDx events are planned and coordinated independently,
under a free license granted by TED.

Four themes which received a proper pictogram, developed in the same line of thinking: all represents something factual related with the nature and the mankind’s history.
