TEDxAlmedalen is returning to Visby
Named the best seminar during the Almedalen Week 2010, TEDxAlmedalen returns again this year. The event will take place on 7th of July and this year’s theme will be The Doers.
After a successful event last year TEDxAlmedalen will take place again in Visby, Sweden. The event is a joint effort by Greatness PR and Twingly and will occur as a private midnight session between 9pm to 12pm in an inner courtyard in Visby.
“I am TEDx-addicted and proud of last year’s event. The theme for TEDxAlmedalen 2010 was How to get followers, fans and friends. This year we push it forward and are welcoming the people who really makes a difference and not just talking about it”, says Joanna Sundström, Creative Director Greatness PR.
The Almedalen Week is a unique meeting point for politicians, debaters, organisations, lobbyists, journalists and entrepreneurs where speech and conversation is fundamental but who is it that really makes a difference? Debates and discussions are important but for TEDxAlmedalen the focus will be on those who transform words into action – The Doers .
“I look forward to enjoying the same wonderful atmosphere I felt last year again”, says co- initiator Anton Johansson, Twingly. “It’s amazing how great people, interesting talks and a warm summer night can be so inspiring.”

About TEDx, x = independently organized event
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.)
About TED
TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 25 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. The annual TED Conference invites the world's leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes. Their talks are then made available, free, at TED.com. TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Al Gore, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Nandan Nilekani, Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Isabel Allende and UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The annual TED Conference takes place in Long Beach, California, with simulcast in Palm Springs; TEDGlobal is held each year in Oxford, UK. TED's media initiatives include TED.com, where new TEDTalks are posted daily, and the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as the ability for any TEDTalk to be translated by volunteers worldwide. TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world are given the opportunity to put their wishes into action; TEDx, which offers individuals or groups a way to organize local, independent TED-like events around the world; and the TEDFellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.
