The first ever TEDx event in Yerevan was held on September 25, 2010.

Dear Friend,
The Banadzev program on Armenia's Public Television will provide broad coverage of technological issues, including TEDxYerevan on Saturday, October 2, 17:40. Don't miss it. Either live, or online.
TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 25 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. The annual TED Conference invites the world's leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes and their talks are then made available, free, at TED.com.
In the same spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. TEDxYerevan was born because of the desire of a group of TED devotees who had already spent months translating TED talks into Armenian. Beyond Borders was chosen as the subject umbrella under which talks were invited.
At the conclusion of the program, as Salpi Ghazarian, director of the Civilitas Foundation, and TEDxYerevan moderator said, "If TED didn't exist, Armenians should have invented it. TED enables what we've been doing for centuries. Bringing good ideas in and sharing our good ideas with the world."
Those of you who attended the conference were kindly asked to complete feedback forms as quickly as possible in order to make possible another TEDx event and one that will be even more insightful and thought-provoking.
For those who were and were not present, the TEDxYerevan talks will be available on www.tedxyerevan.com within two days. We look forward to your comments. We invite you to share the talks broadly and consider suggestions for the next TEDxYerevan event.
Meanwhile, pictures are available online and you can also watch two short videos produced in the run-up to the event.
Sincerely,
TEDx Yerevan Organizing Team
