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).

Ryan Benz is a speaker, author, and authenticity strategist who helps individuals and teams reconnect to who they truly are—so they can walk their own path, build resilience, and inspire growth in life and work. Before redefining his life’s direction, Ryan spent over a decade working as a brand strategist in the corporate world, helping companies uncover what made them unique. It wasn’t until his personal life began to unravel—prompting him to step away from his career and everything familiar—that he realized: the most important brand you’ll ever build is the one inside yourself. Drawing on certifications in mindfulness, nature therapy, yoga, and life coaching, alongside lessons learned on a 2,000-mile journey along the Appalachian Trail, Ryan now shares trail-tested insights in self-discovery, resilience, and authentic leadership through his award-winning memoir Wander, keynote talks, and workshops for audiences of all ages.
