TED: Ideas Worth Spreading
TED：與世界分享思想
TED’s catchphrase is “ideas worth spreading.” While talks are a large part of that, the organization has moved into other areas as well. The TED Prize began in 2005 and awarded winners US$100,000 for big ideas that might change the world. In 2013, the organization increased this amount to one million dollars, in hopes of helping the winners carry out their ideas. After 2017, the TED Prize became The Audacious Project. This project aims to help individuals put their bold ideas into action.
TED 的口號是「值得分享的思想」。雖然演講仍是組織非常重要的一部分，它也進展到其他的領域。TED 大獎開始於 2005 年，它獎勵獲獎者十萬美元，贊助其可能改變世界的偉大想法。2013年，TED 組織將獎金提升到了一百萬美元，希望能幫助獲獎者們實現他們的想法。在 2017 年後，TED 大獎轉變為「大膽計畫」。該計畫旨在幫助個人將他們大膽的想法付諸實行。
