What is TED?
TED​ is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, 
powerful talks (18 minutes or less). ​TED​ began in 1984 as a conference where 
Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all 
topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 
X​
languages. Meanwhile, independently run ​TED​ events help share ideas in 
communities around the world.
 
X​
What is TED​ ?
X​
A ​TED​ event is a local gathering where live ​TED​-like talks and performances 
X​
are shared with the community. ​TED​ events are fully planned and coordinated 
independently, on a community-by-community basis. The content and design of 
X​
each ​TED​ event is unique and developed independently, but all of them have 
features in common.
X​
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, ​TED​  is a program of local, self-organized 
X
events that bring people together to share a ​TED​-like experience. At a ​TED​  
event, ​TED​ talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and 
X​
connection. These local, self-organized events are branded ​TED​ , where ​x = 
independently organized TED event​. The ​TED​ conference provides general 
X​ X​
guidance for the ​TED​ program, but individual ​TED​ events are self-organized.
 
X​
What will be TED​ ShardaUniversity?
X​
TED​ ShardaUniversity​ will be an independently organized ​TED​ event operated 
under the license from ​TED​. The one-day conference will feature eminent 
speakers from different walks of life who will share unique ideas. 
X​
TED​ ShardaUniversity​ will bring together a community of curious minds to 
engage with ideas and each other.
 X​
The ​TED​ ShardaUniversity​ team is a collaboration of young and like-minded 
people with the vision and drive to spread ideas that are worth sharing.

University event:
X​
University events are ​TED​ events hosted at a college or university, and
organized by current university administration staff, faculty or students. It
gives universities the opportunity to share the unique innovation and ideas
that their community is creating.
About this event type
A university event license follows the same format as the standard event
license, except this event is co-branded with a university name (e.g.,
X​
“​TED​ NYU​”). This means that the event is hosted by that college or university,
so you’ll need permission from that school to hold the event and to use the
university's name.
A university license must be held by a current student, faculty or staff member
of that university. (Sorry, former staff or alumni aren’t eligible to apply!) One
license is allocated per university. However, in special circumstances where a
university has schools located in different cities, we can permit licenses for
separate events.
If you are a student, we do not recommend applying or suggesting an event
X
date in your final semester. It takes at least three months to organize a ​TED​
event and there are a number of things to do after your event takes place.
The following applies to all university events:
Naming your event:
Your event will be named after the full name of the university (e.g.,
X​ X​
“​TED​ StrathmoreUniversity​”, “​TED​ NixorCollege​”).

Audience:
Usually, the audience of a university event are students, faculty and/or
administration, but it will ultimately be up to you to decide who you want your
guests to be.
Size:
X​
Like standard ​TED​ events, university events can have up to 100 guests. Only
individuals who have attended an official ​TED​ conference can organize an
event with more than 100 attendees.
Theme:
For a university event type, your focus or theme should be multidisciplinary
and broad, and address a variety of topics. You’ll want to feature a diversity of
speakers from across several disciplines, and speakers from the university
where you’re holding your event. To get an idea of what you want the focus of
your event to be.
Duration:
University events can be as brief as a couple of hours, and up to one day in
length.
Pricing:
You may charge up to $100 USD per ticket to attendees.
