Help us celebrate and cultivate “Maine ideas worth spreading” by nominating a speaker or performer for the TEDxDirigo stage. This is an opportunity to unleash the power of ideas and inspire our community of engaged citizens, change-makers, and leaders to shape the future in Maine and beyond.

Presenters are given the opportunity to reach our captive audience via our annual events as well as the TEDx channel on YouTube and TEDx page on TED.com for the world to see.

We need your nominations for speakers and performers who:

• Have an idea worth spreading.
• Can present the work they’re known for in a new light.
• Have a new perspective that the global community may not have access to.
• Have a significant connection to Maine be it personal or professional.

If you or someone you know embodies the TED spirit and would make a great speaker at a TEDxDirigo event, please submit your nomination using the form below.
