The TED Fellows program is currently accepting applications for the TED2023 Fellowship until June 30, 2022.
The TED Fellows program is considered one of the most competitive and highly selective fellowship programs in the world.
The global community, which began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, is on the lookout for "innovators on the rise in their respective fields who are doing bold, original work."
Iconoclast? Innovator? World-changer? Are you at the cutting edge of your field – science, music, technology, the arts, human rights and beyond?
