The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi will host the eighth edition of TEDx on December 11.

Technology, Entertainment and Design is the spirit behind the core idea of TED. Since its inception in 1984, TED has been devoted to “ideas worth spreading”. Through local TED-like experiences, the TEDx programme aims to promote conversation and connection. TEDx events are completely planned and coordinated on their own.


The theme of the eighth TEDx session at IIM Ranchi is 'Third Side of the Coin', reflecting the uniqueness and beauty of life. According to the organisers, the third side of the coin represents those who stand apart by doing different things from others. It reflects those who have shown that there is more to life than defeats and victories.
