Please Join our private mailing list for advance notice of our events.
After 14 straight years of sold-out shows and curating hundreds of TEDx Talks (75 million views and counting), we are taking a sabbatical from producing any live speaker events for a while. We plan to resume these activities in late 2026.
In the meantime, our Script Development services remain available, and we may host occasional social gatherings.

What is TEDxMarin?
TEDxMarin’s overall mission seeks to connect,educate, and collaborate with organizations, individuals, educators, companies, gifted speakers, community leaders, and thinkers whose vision aligns with ours: building strong, smart, and understanding communities through education, innovation, new ideas, and a spark of entertainment.
What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a local, self-organized event program that brings people together to share a TED-like experience. Ours is called TEDxMarin, where x = independently organized TED event.
We host three types of events.
ANNUAL EVENT At our annual event, we present new TED Talks on various topics within a broad-reaching theme to spark deeper conversations within our community.
SALONS Our TEDxSalons go deep into one specific topic with insights from leaders in their field. These Salons promote thoughtful inquiry, broaden points of view, and include time for a moderated Question and Answer segment between our featured speakers and audience questions.
SMALL CURATED GATHERINGS These are private invitation-only events for folks who have signed up/filled out the confidential invite survey.
