TEDx talks are a showcase for speakers presenting new, well-formed ideas and inventions in 12-15 minutes. They are very different from conference talks!

Each speaker will be coached by a member of the organising team and is <strong>required to participate in several (virtual) rehearsals. <\/strong>TED rules also require that a <strong>script of the talk<\/strong> is submitted around a month prior to the event.<\/p><p>If you want to share your idea with a keen audience, fill in the <a href=\"https:\/\/ulsurvey.uni.lu\/index.php\/634899?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">online form<\/a> by 7 June 2020.
