After nine years, TEDx is returning to Texas Woman’s, and it’ll be bigger and better than before. Patterned after the wildly popular global speaking series, TEDxTWU showcases university and community leadership by bringing together a broad ensemble of thought-provoking speakers.

Twenty speakers will share their innovative ideas and impactful stories through a series of talks and the daylong event will include presentations, performances, and activities with campus and community partners that have a stake in fostering access to education, arts, facilities and more. TEDxTWU will be from 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. on May 3 at the Redbud Theatre.
