What is TEDx?

In the spirit of discovering and spreading ideas, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxValletta, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxValletta event, TED Talks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.

This presentation will explore how everyday consumer choices shape businesses and drive change. It will highlight the power of intentional spending, the role of complaints as a tool for improvement, and how customer activism is redefining the future of business.

AI and Why Curiosity Alone Won't Save Us

Curiosity has always been the engine of progress, from space exploration to Artificial Intelligence. But how do you treat curiosity for ambitious goals, when the outcomes are uncertain? How far can we go? This talk examines the two forces behind every leap in technology: the urge to push boundaries and the caution that guards against risk. Drawing lessons from NASA for today's AI environment, it highlights the need to balance exploration with skepticism.

Trust is the secret ingredient that made humanity evolve from caves to space. Trust allows us to cooperate and build civilization. With blockchains, we have mathematically ensured trust, allowing us to evolve the way we cooperate. This new paradigm of trust makes it possible for people to work together, share their expertise and build a better future.

Getting Through The Panic Years

The “panic years” represent a time of navigating expectations, comparisons, and self-doubt in a fast-paced world filled with opportunities and pressures. As traditional paths give way to freelance careers and evolving values like mental health and sustainability, the journey to redefine success can feel overwhelming. Hustle culture adds to the cycle of highs and lows, but resilience grows through shared struggles and support. This talk highlights that embracing uncertainty is key to personal growth, self-discovery, and redefining what matters.
