“To engage with the future, to find elusive audiences, to test ideas and to create tangible relationships. Becoming a TEDx partner means you share in our mission of spreading ideas that can change the world, join our community of thought leaders, and benefit from individually tailored sponsorship”
TEDxSantaBarbara Impact
"The mission of TEDxSantaBarbara is to bring ideas to the Red Circle that will creatively and positively impact the Santa Barbara community. Our hope is that those ideas, delivered by amazing speakers, will go on to make a difference in the world at large.
Beyond Ideas Worth Sharing, we call this Ideas Worth Doing.”
Rachel
In 2017 Rachel told us about how organization, The Five Gyres Institute was the first to research plastic pollution in the
ocean. The institute’s identification of the problem of plastic microbeads led to a
federal ban. Her overarching goal: To stop the flow of plastic from
source to sea by 2028.
Jackson
Jackson thrilled us all
with his melodies while
bringing global attention
to a relatively unknown
disease, HS (Hidradenitis
Suppurativa). With his talk
online, thousands of
sufferers have come
together to share their
own stories and support
one another
Chloe
Chloe’s talk in 2016 went on to become an international movement called Stand Beautiful. Chloe spent last summer speaking at 50 locations around the world about the challenges of finding your inner beauty. She was 16 when she gave her talk and is now headed to Westmont College.
Sam
Sam’s 2018 talk described his landmark film, shot in Syria and directed remotely, at significant risk to all involved. His focus on giving voice to the voiceless, the oppressed in
his home country was a compelling testament to the power of a single idea. Since the Talk debuted it has been translated into Arabic so that the Middle Eastern region
can share the ideas that he discussed on stage.

The TEDxSantaBarbara Audience at a glance
The TEDxSantaBarbara audience is quite impressive. Just as varied as the program and speakers, individuals from diverse backgrounds come together to share the TEDxSantaBarbara experience.
TEDx is about innovation, the future, and keeping people in dialogue. When I think about what a community foundation is doing, more than anything else, is helping citizens identify the most important factors that will lead to the best collective future.
