TED is a non-commercial enterprise, and all TEDx events are similarly not-for-profit. TEDxSydney will be free (or heavily subsidised) for those invited and selected, and is therefore only possible thanks to the generous support of a select group of companies and organisations committed to supporting the transformative power of ideas. As with everything to do with TED, the emphasis is on quality rather than quantity. The partners and sponsors listed below have been carefully chosen and their involvement with TEDxSydney can only add to the unique atmosphere of TED.
