TEDxNCState

This year, the theme of our annual TEDxNCState event is “In Focus." To us, "In Focus" means to reframe your perspective through the lens of another. This year's event will feature seven speakers who will inspire us all to put our perspectives "In Focus." Join us on April 3rd, 2026, at 3 PM in the Kennedy-McIlwee Studio Theatre on NC State's campus to take part in what is sure to be an amazing event. -- TEDxNCState is an independently organized TEDx event, organized by students at NC State University. Our mission is to connect students with the global community to create a culture of knowledge that motivates them to realize their potential to shape the world. We aim to elevate the voices of NC State students and community members, providing a platform to share their own ideas and gain new perspectives. By presenting the thoughts and work of passionate students, faculty, and community members, we hope to create lasting and impactful connections between listeners and promote ideas worth spreading.
