No, everyone on our team is a volunteer.

What’s a TEDxUofTSalon?
A Salon is a more intimate TEDx event that dives deeply into one subject area. Up to 100 curious attendees are invited to interact with the speakers and with their fellow guests to discuss the ideas presented, ask questions, and explore the theme from different viewpoints. Salons are an evening of ideas worth sharing, engaging in lively discussions about the topics at hand, and creating a deeper connection to the TEDxUofT community.

Why do tickets to TEDxUofT events cost money?
