The yes and no knot

As founder of R3, Julianne Wurm leads a consulting firm that works to create digital content and live experiences. She received her doctorate in education from Columbia University and is the founder of TEDxEast, the first TEDx event in New York City.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
