WHAT IS TEDxUskudar American Academy ? 

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program
called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is call TEDxUskudar American Academy,where x=independently organized TED event.
