TED2022 A NEW ERA
A lot has changed since TED last gathered in Vancouver three years ago. We return not for more of the same, wonderful though that was, but to celebrate a new era. Despite the awfulness we’ve lived through, the future beckons with extraordinary possibilities we couldn’t have dreamt of. In medicine, in AI, in clean energy, in the ways we work, the ways we learn, and in the fundamental economic and social systems that underpin everything else.



TUES 3 NOV
13.00-17.00 | UNIVERSITY OF LINCOLN
THRESHOLDS
The moments that change what’s possible - for people, for places and for our shared future - start at the Thresholds.
It’s about what happens when we move from one chapter to the next. When we step into the unknown. When ideas leave the familiar and find new ground.
Join us for a day of remarkable talks, performances and conversations, filmed live in Lincoln and shared with the world.
EVERY CHANGE BEGINS AT A THRESHOLD
#TEDxTHRESHOLDS
SPEAKERS
Join the live studio audience for TEDxBrayford Pool: Thresholds and experience the ideas as they’re shared on stage. Across two filmed sessions, you’ll hear fresh perspectives, encounter thought-provoking stories and share in the energy of a room full of curious minds.
MEET THIS YEAR'S SPEAKERS

EXPERIENCE
YOU’RE PART OF THE RECORDING
This isn’t a conference. It’s a live studio recording.
Your laughter, silence, applause and attention become part of the speaker’s experience and part of the films that will go on to be watched around the world.
You’ll be with us for one continuous recording session, with a comfort break part-way through. There are no breakout rooms, workshops or competing stages, just remarkable people, remarkable ideas and the shared experience of being in the room while the talks are made.
PARTNERS
TEDxBrayford Pool is made possible by organisations and people who believe in the power of ideas, creativity and community.
Their support helps us create the space for remarkable voices to be heard in Lincoln, and shared far beyond it.
HELPING LOCAL IDEAS GO GLOBAL
