TEDxMac is back.
TEDxMacatawa 2026 will return on Oct 5, 2026. We are now accepting submissions for talks & performance opportunities.
EVENT OVERVIEW
2026: Signal & Noise
At the convergence of technology, entertainment and design, TEDxMacatawa presents our community’s intellectual and imaginative contributions toward shaping the world of tomorrow. In a cultural and economic moment marked by deep uncertainty, this years’ lineup of presenters will share stories around the theme of Signal & Noise – finding clarity amidst chaos.
What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, 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 TEDxMacatawa, where x = independently organized TED event.
At our TEDxMacatawa 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.
