The 16th TEDxQueensU conference, themed "Orchestrate," celebrates the art of bringing distinct ideas and perspectives into harmony to foster connection, collective impact and meaningful action. This year, we’re continuing to strengthen deepening ties with the Kingston community by partnering with local businesses and restaurants, bringing their unique flavors and offerings to attendees. Additionally, the Innovation Lab will feature some of the region’s most exciting organizations, showcasing groundbreaking ideas and fostering collaboration. Through these efforts, TEDxQueensU 2026 not only celebrates the legacy of impactful storytelling but also embraces its role as a bridge between Queen’s University and the vibrant Kingston community.
