✨ 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 TEDxMarvila, where x = independently organized TED event. At TEDxMarvila, TED Talks videos and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. While the TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized, allowing for a unique and locally driven experience.
TEDxMarvila isn’t just an event — it’s a movement dedicated to celebrating ideas, fostering creativity, and strengthening human connections. Prata Living is honored to support this dynamic platform that brings together global perspectives to spark meaningful dialogue and inspiration.
✨ About TEDxMarvila TEDxMarvila was born from the initiative of a Marvila resident, driven by a desire to blend traditional local roots with a fresh, international spirit.
TEDxMarvila is a platform where ideas worth spreading connect people across cultures, creating meaningful dialogue that can inspire positive change right here in the vibrant Marvila district, Lisbon’s creative hub.
It offers the public and partners the unique opportunity to participate in an independently organized TED-like experience, to connect with curious and creative minds, get inspired, and share a full day of enlightening ideas and thought-provoking conversations.

The richness of our community — its diversity, creativity, and willingness to share unique perspectives — drives me to seek out moments of connection and purpose. TEDx values of curiosity and lifelong learning remind me to look for meaning in the stories people share, in the art that moves us, and in projects that make a real difference.
