TEDxSanFrancisco is a day-long conference featuring compelling TED speakers who are masters in their disciplines, spanning tech, science, philosophy, design, and how it impacts our lives. Since 2016, we have had 80+ speakers and performances, 3,000+ attendees, 320+ volunteers, 17,600+ online followers and subscribers, 4,000,000 online video views, and 2 TED.com-featured videos!

For the fourth year in a row, we’re back in San Francisco to push through the frontiers of knowledge with our theme “Dare to Know.” The conference will begin promptly at 9 am and end at 5:30 pm. Our local partners will provide lunch, snacks, and drinks. And after the conference is the after-party, where you can get to know the speakers, sponsors, and our team.
