Apply to be a TED2020 Fellow

Since launching the TED Fellows program ten years ago, we’ve gotten to know and support some of the brightest, most ambitious thinkers, change-makers and culture-shakers from nearly every discipline and corner of the world. The numbers speak for themselves:

  • 472 Fellows covering a vast array of disciplines, from astrophysics to the arts
  • 96 countries represented
  • More than 1.3 million views per TED Talk given by Fellows (on average)
  • At least 90 new businesses and 46 nonprofits fostered within the program

Whether it’s discovering new galaxies, leading social movements or making waves in environmental conservation, with the support of TED, our Fellows are dedicated to making the world a better place through their innovative work. And you could be one of them.
