TEDxDerby is a half-day conference that aims to inspire you to take that leap of faith and see your ideas through from humble beginnings to fruitful endings. We’ve hand-picked a selection of seven speakers to take to the stage of Friar Gate Studios on 22nd March 2014.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a programme called TEDx. TEDx is a programme of local, self-organised events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
Our event is called TEDxDerby, where x = independently organised TED event.
At our TEDxDerby event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx programme, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organised.
All information.

Help to re:make the Silk Mill Museum
Re:imagining Derby's Silk Mill
The Silk Mill is in the process of reinventing itself for the 21st century - through reviving the principles of the Enlightenment and expanding traditional perspectives of what a museum is and can be. The concept has been developed from a desire to reflect both the 300 year heritage of the building, starting with the Silk Mill as the site of the world’s first factory, through to the modern day city of Derby as a leader in advanced engineering and manufacturing.
