At TEDxLondon events, you can expect to be inspired, challenged and motivated! TEDx events are carefully curated to cover a wide range of topics, disciplines and perspectives on larger key themes and ideas. We encourage you to be open to topics and ideas that you would not have naturally chosen to watch. You may not agree with everything you hear on stage, but undoubtedly you will come away with new knowledge and learnings that we hope you can reflect on in your everyday life. Ultimately, we hope TEDxLondon events will inspire you to see and understand different people, perspectives and ideas.
Women the world over are no longer accepting the status quo. They’re rising up, breaking out and pushing boundaries. Whatever their focus and talent – business, technology, art, science, politics – these pioneers and their allies are joining forces in an explosion of discovery and ingenuity to drive real, meaningful change.
TEDxLondonWomen celebrated how these dynamic and diverse people are showing up to face challenges head on, all while empowering each other to shape the future we all want to see. TEDxLondonWomen was part of the Global TEDxWomen events programme and included an exclusive session from TEDWomen during the event.
TEDxLondonWomen is an inclusive space. We welcome people from all backgrounds and ages, all genders (cis, trans, non-binary), all sexual orientations (LGBTQI+), all races and ethnicities and all people with visible and invisible disabilities. We are passionate and proud to reflect diversity both in our audience and on our stage.

TEDxLondon 2018 is Beyond Borders – beyond limitations, boundaries and labels in order to solve society’s challenges, promote innovation and celebrate our humanity. We support contagious, resilient ideas worth spreading. We want to live in a society that thinks, listens, creates and speaks beyond borders. Join us in reaching for it.
New perspectives on dementia, how our brains are wired for politics, what it means to remove borders for refugees, how internet campaigning has levelled the playing field for anyone who feels they’re different, and how the drag scene is so important to gender identity.
