Why should you sponsor?

TEDxTempleUniversity isn’t just an event; it’s the beginning of a movement.
This is our very first year, fully student-run and volunteer-driven. We’ve poured our hearts into building something that brings Temple, Philadelphia, and beyond together around one powerful theme: Discovery Takes Flight.

Sponsoring TEDxTempleUniversity is more than brand visibility. It’s joining us at the moment of lift-off—when bold ideas, fresh voices, and a community’s energy all come together to take flight. You’ll be helping us create a platform that doesn’t just share ideas, but inspires action and fuels the next generation of leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.

Eleven speakers. A room filled with Philadelphians and Temple’s diverse student body. Thousands more reached online. But the real measure isn’t numbers—it’s the spark. The spark of discovery, courage, and possibility that your support makes possible.

Our stage is Temple’s Innovation Nest (iNest)—a space that embodies creativity, progress, and forward-thinking. It’s where ideas take wing, and your brand will be right there with us, associated with discovery at its very beginning.

TED and TEDx stand for powerful ideas, authentic voices, and inspiration that ripples outward. By sponsoring, you’re not just funding an event—you’re helping a first-time team of students prove what’s possible when discovery truly takes flight.
