We strictly enforce the clock for all speakers. TEDxNapierBridge is the place to condense your ideas into a compelling 15-minute talk that communicates your best ideas.
Do you have keynotes or panels?
At TEDxNapierBridge, everyone hears every presentation; there are no breakout sessions or tracks, no keynotes, and very rarely are there panels.
