什么是TED?
TED(指technology, entertainment, design 在英语中的缩写,即技术、娱乐、设计)是美国的一家私有非营利机构,该机构以它组织的TED大会著称。TED诞生于1984年,其发起人是里查德•沃曼。2002年起,克里斯•安德森接管TED,创立了种子基金会(The Sapling Foundation),并营运TED大会。每年3月,TED大会在美国召集众多科学、设计、文学、音乐等领域的杰出人物,分享他们关于技术、社会、人的思考和探索。TED是社会各界精英交流的盛会,它鼓励各种创新思想的展示、碰撞。
TED 是一个跨界的智库,是一个对话的平台,更是实现 ideas 的舞台。TED 分别代表的是科技 (technology)、娱乐 (entertainment)、设计 (design),是一年一度的创新盛会 。1984 年由 Richard Wurman 在加州创立,原本只是一群朋友间的脑力大激荡,他们来自不同的领域,他们有些是建筑师、科学家、教育家、诗人、剧作家、创业家、设计师等等。他们对未来充满热情,又有一些叛逆,聚在一起讨论最新最酷的点子,和如何可以改变这个世界。
TED 的独特性在于它用“说故事”的方式为这个大会定调。每位讲者用 18 分钟的时间把她 / 他用故事的方式现出来,在讲者踏上讲台的那一刻故事就已经开始。TED 在 2002 年由 媒体创业家 Chris Andreson 买下。 Chris 创办过 Business 2.0,熟知 web 2.0 的力量。他将 TED 纳入他的非营利组织 Sapling Foundation,并且从 2006 年开始将过去的演讲内容放到 Ted.com,让全世界可以免费收看,并且结合社群媒体的力量,形成持续的长尾效应。过去 25年来 TED 所探讨的议题甚广,除了科技、娱乐、设计,更涵盖了环保、全球议题、非洲、创业等等。参与过 TED 包括有 Google 的创办人、生态保育学家 珍 古德 ( Jane Goodall)、环保斗士 高尔、摇滚乐团 U2 主唱 Bono 等等。

TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world are given the opportunity to put their wishes into action; TEDx, which offers individuals or groups a way to host local, self-organized events around the world, and the TEDFellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.
