TEDx Talks Come to Columbus, Ohio – TEDWomen is a three-day conference about the power of women and girls to be creators and change-makers. The program of speakers, workshops, events — and daring discussions — has sparked some of TED’s most iconic moments yet.

While that is going on in Monterey, California, there will be something else going on in downtown Columbus, Ohio.

TEDxColumbusWomen will take place on the day of the global TEDxWomen conference, similar to what happened in 2014. It will include local talks in the typical TED-style in the morning and feature live-streamed talks in the afternoon from the main conference in Monterey. The local talks in Columbus will be posted online in true TEDx form.

The event will be held on Thursday, May 28, 2015 at the Southern Theatre at 21 E. Main Street, Columbus, Ohio.

The schedule is as follows for the day:

Registration/Networking: 8 am – 9 am

Session 1: 9 am – 10:15 am

Break: 10:15 am – 10:45 am

Session 2: 10:45 – noon

Provided lunch break 12 pm -1:30

Live-stream of a session of TEDWomen from California: 1:30pm – 5pm
