Join us at TED2027 for:
The future is arriving faster than anyone predicted, and it's stranger, wilder and more consequential than we dared imagine.
At TED2027, we'll bring together the thinkers, dreamers and truth-tellers living at the edge of what's next: the technologists rewriting the rules of what it means to be human, the scientists unlocking biology's most closely guarded secrets, the builders and visionaries making sense of a world being remade in real time.
This is a moment that demands we look clearly at what's coming: the breakthroughs that could solve our greatest crises; the forces that keep us up at night.
If you've felt the ground shifting beneath your feet and wondered what comes next, this is where you need to be.
The TED2027 program is a microcosm of the human experience β ideas drawn from every sector and every corner of the world. The TED Ideas Council brings together prominent thinkers whose perspectives help to shape the conference before it even begins. Their role is both to provoke and inform: surfacing questions worth asking, challenging assumptions and pointing toward the conversations that matter most. The result is a conference with sharp edges and insights you won't find anywhere else.
Meet some of the members. More to come.
βI came with an open mind and nervous energy. I left with dreams fulfilled."
"TED is the most wonderful community of humans. It's my bubble of positivity and optimism. My yoga retreat for the brain."
"I left with a powerful sense of possibility and responsibility. The world, in that moment, felt both bigger and closer than ever before."
βYou can get something out of it, even if you don't agree with any of the topics β and that is the beauty of it. Many perspectives are showcased and it helps you find your own voice."
Ready for the unexpected? You're invited to a space that changes you. Something special happens when you put genuinely curious people in a room with ideas worth reckoning with. The talks are just the starting point. What happens between sessions β the experiences and unplanned conversations that tilt you sideways β matter just as much. Sometimes more.
Imagine a room where the right conversation β with the right person β finds you at the right moment.
Small groups, big questions, daring adventures into San Diego's labs, oceans and beyond.
Evenings that crackle. Joy that fills the room and doesn't leave when you do.
The people who come to TED are defined less by titles than by what they build and how they think. They're the ones who still discover the world with insatiable curiosity β and do something about it. Here you'll meet the scientists, the dreamers, the artists, the builders, the connectors and the leaders who are actively shaping what comes next. This is their playground β and yours.
What makes San Diego special is what happens at its intersections. Where the Pacific Rim meets Latin America. Where Nobel laureates and biotech pioneers work alongside legendary musicians, activists and storytellers.
San Diego opened its arms to TED β its civic leaders, its institutions, its people all said: we've been waiting for you. A city this creative, this curious, this committed to what comes next was the right choice for our new home. We'll be at the San Diego Convention Center β right on the water, in the middle of all of it.
