2013 Presenters
Presenters
for TEDxMuskegon's 2013 date have not been finalized. Applications and
recommendations for presenting are now being accepted.
Apply to be one of our presenters or recommend someone to be a presenter.
Speakers of our TEDxMuskegon event will be posted as they are
confirmed. We will be searching for presenters who will inform and
inspire, surprise and delight. We will have 10-12 live presentations in
conjunction with TED talks and other local activities. Presentations
will be required to be below 18 minutes and
this will be communicated upon acceptance of your idea.
TED and TEDx isn't a typical conference. The TED and TEDx audience has high expectations of the speakers. Our TEDx speaker team works with speakers well in advance of the conference to help shape a presentation that will succeed on the stage. TED and TEDx is the place to give the talk of your life. There are no keynote speakers, all speakers are equal.
TEDx Muskegon does not pay speakers. We do, of course, cover travel costs and provide excellent hotel accommodations. Most speakers stay for the conference, soaking up the inspiration, and connecting with other fascinating attendees. Other TEDxMuskegon benefits include a Program Guide with space devoted to each full-length speaker and a web presence on YouTube and other social media later. We're committed to creating an experience that's tremendously fulfilling and beneficial on all sides.
Speaker Benefits
A key benefit of speaking at TEDxMuskegon is that your presentation will be livestreamed and could potentially be seen worldwide. It will also part of our beautifully produced, broadcast-quality video series that will be posted on our website. Offered free to the public, TED and TEDx Talks have proven extraordinarily effective at spreading ideas. The goal is to help shape the future of Muskegon.
