A group of local volunteers is organizing TEDxLizardCreek at Lake Gaston, an event promoting ideas worth spreading. Our event will take place on April 26, 2014 at the Lake Gaston Lions Den.
What is TEDxLizardCreek?
TEDx is a program of local, self-organized event that brings people together to share ideas worth spreading. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks videos and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x=independently organized event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.

What is TED?
TED is an annual event where some of the world's leading thinkers and doers are invited to share what they are most passionate about. "TED" stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design — three broad subject areas that are, collectively, shaping our future. And in fact, the event is broader still, showcasing ideas that matter in any discipline. Attendees have called it "the ultimate brain spa" and "a four-day journey into the future." The diverse audience — CEOs, scientists, creatives, philanthropists — is almost as extraordinary as the speakers, who have included Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon, Sir Richard Branson, Philippe Starck and Bono.
What are the details of TEDxLizardCreek?
TEDxLizardcreek will be held in the Lake Gaston area at the Lake Gaston Lions Den on April 26, 2014. The event will run from mid-morning to the early evening (a final schedule is still pending). Our audience will consist of up to 100 Roanoke Valley’s business leaders, area leaders, visionaries and selected area high school students. The event is open, but we want participants who will truly appreciate the TED concept.
Our theme is “Shaping the Unseen.” What moves us, what shakes us, and what invites us to action is often a private journey that can lead to a very public reaction. That which others cannot see - our hopes, dreams, fears, ambition, trepidation, joy - remains ever present, moving us in a direction of our choosing.
TEDx was created in the spirit of TED's mission, Ideas Worth Spreading. TEDx events are fully planned and coordinated independently, on a community-by-community basis. Please note however that TED must approve all sponsors.
Per the TEDx guidelines, TEDx events are non-profit events. All sponsorship funds or in-kind products raised or given through sponsorship have to go back into the production of the event. TEDx events cannot be a profit-making endeavor.

Rules for sponsors
1. If your potential sponsors are on our TED Sponsor list, submit them to the TEDx Sponsorship Approval Form. Submitted sponsors must be approved by the TED team Before you approach any potential sponsors on the TED Sponsors list, they must be approved by the TED team. Note: All other sponsor companies are automatically approved. Make sure to check our list of unacceptable sponsors for types of companies that cannot sponsor TEDx events.
2. Follow TED’s policy on approved sponsors. TED strictly forbids sponsorship by companies or organizations who deal in:
➢ Tobacco/cigarettes
➢ Adult-oriented products/services
➢ Weapons/ammunition
3. Sponsors cannot influence content. Sponsors may have no editorial control or veto power over your program.
4. Sponsorship is not allowed on stage. Sponsors may not present on the TEDx stage and sponsor logos may not appear onstage. Sponsors may not pitch their company or product from the TEDx stage.
5. Keep your social media presence sponsor-free. You are not allowed to promote your sponsors on Twitter, Facebook, or any other social media.
6. Limit use of sponsor logos. Multiple sponsors are allowed a logo on one slide at the beginning and end of each TEDx video. This slide may appear on screen for a maximum of 3 seconds. Pre- and post-roll sponsor logo cards must match the format specified in the TEDx templates.
7. Do not look for sponsors at other TED Conferences. TEDx Organizers cannot approach or engage in discussions with existing TED sponsors or partners at the TED Conferences – TED, TEDActive and TEDGlobal.
8. Organizers must find their own sponsors. The TED team will not provide introductions to sponsors, or negotiate sponsorships on behalf of TEDx Organizers.
9. Respect funding limits. Total sponsorship funding for events with fewer than 100 attendees may not exceed $10,000 in cash (not including in-kind, or venue cost). For events with more than 100 attendees, the limit is $20,000 per sponsor. Any requests to exceed these amounts must be approved in writing by TED.
10. TEDx events may not be used as fundraisers. TEDx events should not be used to raise money for any causes or charities. If the event is run through an existing nonprofit, the event can’t be used as a fundraiser for that nonprofit. All money must go into production costs of the TEDx event itself
11. Uphold payment rules. Wherever possible, have sponsors pay vendors directly.
12. Submit your sponsor summary in the TEDx Organizer Close Out. This is mandatory and failure to do so could impact your renewal status.
13. TEDx events can’t be used to make money. All proceeds from your TEDx event must go into your TEDx event. If you have excess money available afterward, you might invest it in your next TEDx event, in a TEDx in a Box event, or consider giving it to a school so that it can host a TEDx event. This kind of donation is not considered “fundraising.”
14. Uphold rules around TEDx-branded products. Branded products may be given away. TEDx-branded products may only be sold at your event -- not pre-, - post or online. Profits from these items must go back to support your event. The TEDx logo/brand may not be licensed for commercial purposes.
15. No crowdfunding. TEDx events cannot use crowdfunding platforms -- such as IndieGoGo, Kickstarter, or other local platforms -- to raise money for any aspect of a TEDx event.
16. Regulate onsite bookstores. If you partner with a bookstore to present attendees with a selection of works, make sure that:
1. All revenues from book sales should go to the bookstore. The bookstore should provide staffing and shipping of all orders.
2. Revenue from customized items such as t-shirts and mugs can be shared between the TEDx event and the bookstore.
3. Speakers’ books can be part of a TEDx bookstore but must be sold alongside other titles.
4. Speaker’s can sign books but only as part of a larger book sale and bookstore presence.
