Our History

TEDxGateway began as a small ideas conference in Mumbai, India. That single conference with 350 attendees in 2010 has grown into various annual events with 55,000+ attendees in person and 350+ speakers, all dedicated to TEDx’s global mission of researching and sharing meaningful new ideas.

Most of our conferences are broad in scope, such as our annual TEDxGateway Conference. Occasionally we hold deep-dive Salon conferences more focused on one subject area like - Climate Change, Women & Gender Discussion, Healthcare, Mental Health, Public Service, Parents & Children, Music & Mobility.

Partner with us

Thanks to the generous support of our partners, we are able to fund our mission of ideas worth spreading.

We partner with best-in-class brands (like The Aditya Birla Group, JSW Group, Reliance Group, Abbott India, SAP, Accenture, BMW, Microsoft to name a few) to create innovative, inspiring and impactful thought leadership campaigns.

A partnership with TEDxGateway is truly unique and leverages everything that makes us stand apart, including our unprecedented ability to build meaningful connections among a global community. Past partners have conducted in-depth, expert-led workshops, supported community gatherings and hosted interactive exhibits, while being immersed in a fast-paced environment devoted to exploring ideas shaping the future.

TEDxGateway relies on support from our community to further our goal of making great ideas accessible and helping create a future worth pursuing for all. When you apply to partner and help build TEDxGateway, you’re not just making the conference happen  – you’re directly supporting a powerful mission to share powerful ideas with the world.

Speaking on
Our Stage

Speaking on our stage

We search year-round for speakers who will inform and inspire, surprise and delight. TEDxGateway isn't a typical conference, and the TED audience has high expectations for the speakers – amazing individuals who invent game-changing devices, run the world's most admired companies, design its best-loved products and create ground-breaking media. TEDx also seeks out emerging artists, scientists, thinkers and doers, introducing them to the TED community well before they hit the mainstream.

How are speakers selected? Conference speakers are selected by our curatorial team who identify and investigate ideas and innovations that matter. We invite prominent experts, artists, activists and many others to attend and present our signature TED Talks in their areas of research and expertise.

If you know someone who belongs on the TEDxGateway stage, or if you belong there yourself, we want to hear from you! Learn more about speaking at TEDxGateway, then use the speaker nomination form to tell us why this person would be well-matched to the TEDx stage.
