The inaugural TEDxEcoleHôtelièreLausanne event took place on 16 January 2012 on EHL's campus, featuring a wide variety of speakers offering much food for thought and many enriching ideas for the hospitality sector.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations).
