The TED story
Having always watched TED talks online, I became part of my first TEDx organization in 2019 for TEDxYouth@TEVITOL in Turkey. When I moved to France for my university studies, I wanted to continue to showcase the “ideas worth spreading” and established TEDxÉcolePolytechnique with my co-founder. After our initial event in 2023, we are now preparing for TEDxÉcolePolytechnique 2024 with many surprises and prominent speakers with the theme “Hidden Variables.”
