Your Idea Worth Spreading

What is the working title for your proposed idea? Provide a succinct and compelling title that clearly conveys the essential idea you wish to share with the audience. Your idea should also stimulate the audience's curiosity and self-interest. TEDx talks are about the audience, not about the speaker. Please note that your title may change.

In a sentence, what is your Big Idea? Tell us why you believe this talk presents an idea that is important, interesting, and unique. What is the Big Idea being presented that people have not yet heard or wouldn't intuitively know?

The theme for TEDxGeorgiaCollege 2025 is Spark. How does your talk explore or showcase "Spark"?

What categories best fit your idea? Please choose three.

Clearly outline the narrative arc of your talk. Include what the takeaway message will be—the Idea Worth Spreading. Show how you will get to that idea and what evidence underpins the conclusions.

How do you want people to react to your idea? How do you want people to think or act differently as a result of your talk?
