TEDxAtlanta 2024
“The Future We Create”
Center Stage, Midtown
Friday, September 13, 2024
9:00 am – 6:15 pm
We stand on the edge of tomorrow. The possibilities ahead are vast: Some tantalizing, ripe with potential, and others terrifying.
For TEDxAtlanta 2024, we are seeking ideas that move us closer toward a future where technology and nature are in harmony, societies fuse in unity and innovation dances with tradition.
Explore community in an interconnected world. Ponder the interplay of art and resilience in the face of change? What roles will science and ethics play in the choices we make?
The conference will be a clarion call to action, urging every thinker, doer, and dreamer to play an active role in designing our collective destiny.
Will you join us for a day of reimagination?
Coming up in May
