JAY WALKER Curator and Chairman TEDMED

Dear friend of TEDMED,

Now your organization can host an event of this caliber, cost-free.

TEDMED is the exclusive gathering where world-class doers and thinkers share their vision of the future of health and medicine. People like E.O. Wilson, Craig Venter, Katie Couric, Dean Kamen, Sanjay Gupta, Billie Jean King, and the directors of the FDA, CDC and NIH. TEDMED Live Simulcast  !anks to the magic of TEDMED Live, you can bring our dazzling event to your local auditorium in a realtime simulcast of our exclusive Kennedy Center stage  program. You can choose to host TEDMED Live for one day…two days…or all three and a half days of our April 16-19, 2013 event. Providing lunch on-site for your local attendees will encourage them to make surprising connections among people and ideas. During programming breaks, feel free to showcase your own local, in-person speakers, too.

Attending TEDMED on-site typically costs $5,000 per person. Because your non-profit organization is a vital member of the health community, TEDMED Live is available to you with all costs underwritten by our generous sponsors and corporate affiliates.

You don’t have to spend millions to host a million-dollar event in your own backyard. TEDMED will energize your community with the biggest names and most exciting ideas in health and medicine. Shouldn’t you be part of the TEDMED excitement?

Sincerely,

Jay Walker Curator and Chairman TEDMED TEDMED Live Simulcast 
