TED Conference is one of the most fascinating events in the world. People who attend and present at the conference often make the headlines and front pages of international newspapers. In 2009, the conference’s theme is “Inspiring a better future for Africa through the power of ideas.”

Additionally, TED posts on its site free videos of presentations made at the previous event. We highly recommend you review them. The ones we especially like are by Bono, Jeff Skoll and Richard Branson.
