Ways you can help

Join Our Team!

When you join the TEDx StLouis team, you join a passionate group of individuals dedicated to spreading ideas and creating memorable events. Our team is committed to supporting each other, providing thorough training, and offering mentorship to help you succeed in your role. Together, we make a difference and have a lot of fun along the way!

While we are looking for individuals with experience in these areas, we understand these are volunteer roles. We welcome all to apply. Enthusiasm, willingness to learn, and a passion for the TEDx mission are highly valued.

Become a Speaker / Entertainer

We host events each Spring and Fall, and selected participants are identified months in advance of their stage appearance. Applications are accepted year-round and candidates will be invited to interview based on the criteria outlined in this nomination form. 

Please feel free to nominate yourself or another local contributor.

We look for innovators and trailblazers, especially in the fields of technology, entertainment and design. We seek speakers and entertainers who are passionate, engaging and have the ability to bring a new perspective to the stage. Speakers must also have an intrinsic connection to St. Louis and availability to participate in multiple evening facilitation workshops and practice sessions. Thanks for your interest and we look forward to hearing from you!
