It's a global set of conference owned by non-profit 'Sapling Foundation' catered for 'Ideas worth Spreading'.
The first time I've heard about this was from my 1st semester in University where studying about Introduction to Media was a total blur-ness to me and this conference talk has helped me to understand better since then.
From celebrities to public figures, whoever has their own ideas to share would come up for this conference and LITERALLY share and learn from each other.
Its mission statement is as below -
'We believe passionately in the power of ideas of change attitudes, lives and ultimately the world. So we're building here a clearing house that offers free knowledge and inspiration from the world's most inspired thinkers, and also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other.'
It's interesting and knowledgeable to watch the video clips on Youtube and how these people actually come to this far from small ideas and thoughts. They are not specially skilled people. They are all normal people just like us. However, their thinking is distinctively different from us when we see or hear the news or information or ideas. That's where I learn to expand my thoughts and convert my fixed thoughts and notion.
Some will talk about life, technology and some would talk about dance, music and life.
One of TED conferences I remember is Jamie Oliver who gave an interesting topic about 'Teaching students about food at school" - The follow video clip below is his conference and more videos are uploaded on Youtube.
Furthermore, there's TEDxKL....
The conference of TEDxKL would be held on 14th July, 2012.
This is a brief information....
What is TEDx?

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self- organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.

The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
