TED2013: The Young. The Wise. The Undiscovered is holding auditions for speakers. More than half of the speakers will be selected through the TED Worldwide Auditions, an experiment in crowdsourcing. Robin Ince illustrates a speaker's presentation, even though he later realized what he wanted to say (February 3, 2012).
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, and Design. It's continuing theme is Ideas Worth Sharing.
Organizers will hold public auditions from April to June 2012 in 14 cities on six continents. Auditions seek to uncover new talents, voices and ideas the world needs to hear.
The TED community will have a chance to vote on the most promising presenters. Many of these will be invited to speak at TED2013.
The first audition will be held in April 2012 in Doha, as part of the TEDxSummit. Other confirmed events will occur in Amsterdam, Bangalore, Doha, Johannesburg, London, Nairobi, New York, São Paulo, Seoul, Shanghai, Sydney, Tokyo, Tunis and Vancouver.
