What is TEDx?
In the spirit of discovering and spreading ideas, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxSammamish Women where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDx Sammamish Women event, TED Talks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
TEDx Organizer
A Pacific Northwest native, Jennifer Cooper was granted a TEDxSammamish Women license on February 25, 2025. It started with her own dream to deliver a TED talk some day and quickly morphed into applying to become an organizer and making many women’s dreams come true.
Being laid off in the Fall of 2024 was devastating and unexpected. And through the experience, she’s thriving and living her best life. She wants to inspire women through TEDxSammamish Women to cultivate their worthiness and create the lives of our dreams.
