Launched in 2009, TEDx is a program of locally organized events that bring communities together to share a TED-like experience. Some of the best talks from TEDx events have gone on to be featured on TED.com and have garnered millions of views worldwide.

TEDxTechnion 2025 will spotlight trailblazing ideas from Israel’s innovation ecosystem, with 12 stage talks and a curated audience of founders, researchers, and operators. With only 100 seats, the event emphasizes depth and fosters networking.

“Everything becomes possible when we dare to see the world differently. True progress arises from the fusion of curiosity, courage, knowledge, and imagination. Embracing unexpected innovation is no longer a luxury — it is a necessity,” said Prof. Yuval Garini, Technion Executive Vice President for Innovation and Industry Relations. “By challenging conventions and exploring the unknown, cutting-edge research opens new paths to understanding nature, improving lives, and shaping a better future. This year’s event will bring together pioneers who dare to discover, challenge, and transform the way the future is shaped.”
