TEDxAarhus 2026 Speaker Application

Welcome to TEDxAarhus 2026! We're excited you're here and ready to share your idea worth spreading! Before you get too far along, please be aware of some TEDx speaker guidelines. The big ones are: no promoting/pitching/requesting funding, no partisan politics/proselytizing/pseudoscience, and no hate speech of any kind. If you fall in these categories, this isn't your stage and there's no need to proceed.
If you're outside of those, let's get started!
*For full consideration for the speaker lineup, please submit by 15 July.

This year's theme is "Growing Reputation". How might your talk relate to this theme? (Reminder that talks do not need to be about the theme).

In 2-3 sentences, what unique perspective, lived experience, or expertise do you bring to this subject? Why are you the best person to give this talk?

Please upload or add a link (box on the right) a 1-2 min video just introducing yourself and the topic.

No need to overthink this- it can be just a quick one from the phone.

Feel free to share links to your social media or other talks you've given.
