TEDxLambeth

Who we are

Lambeth is a global borough at a crucial intersection of London. It is one of absolute extremities and opposites, accommodating varied peoples with unlimited creativity and remarkable industry.

As global citizens, we live in an increasingly interconnected planet. We share our neighbours' achievements and failures, feel their happiness and suffering, and sometimes even combine forces to build a better future. At other times, we gladly take a step back to regain focus for fresh adventures. Antinomies, or opposites, are at the heart of all the things we do and think.

With this very first TEDxLambeth, we will give platform to unusual suspects, expose veiled expertise and share what is common to us all: humanity. A confluence of infectious and persistent ideas is what we support. We want to live in a society that observes, constructs and expresses through Antinomies.

TEDxLambeth is an inclusive space, welcoming people from all backgrounds, ages, genders, sexual orientations, races and ethnicities. We pride ourselves on reflecting diversity both in our audience and on stage.

Ultimately, TEDx events are carefully designed to encompass a broad spectrum of subjects, viewpoints and perspectives on wider themes and ideas. We encourage everyone to be open to opposite ideas (Antinomies!) which one would not naturally have chosen to engage with. Though you may not agree with everything, you will come away with new knowledge to reflect and act upon.
