📅 SAVE THE DATE.

Purpose. Potential. Possibility.

On 10 April 2027, we’ll be bringing ideas, people and perspectives together for the next chapter of TEDxWolverhampton.

A day to get curious. To challenge what you think you know. To discover ideas that shift your perspective and possibilities you hadn’t considered.

The date is set. The ideas are taking shape. And we’re only just getting started. 👀

📍 Arena Theatre, Wolverhampton
📅 10 April 2027

More details coming soon.

✨ PURPOSE. POTENTIAL. POSSIBILITY.

Three words. A thousand questions. And so much to explore.

What gives our lives, ideas and actions meaning?

What potential exists within ourselves, others, our communities & societies and the world around us that’s still waiting to be realised?

And what becomes possible when we start to see beyond what is, to what could be?

This is where our next chapter begins.

Introducing the theme for TEDxWolverhampton 2026: Purpose. Potential. Possibility. ❤️

Three ideas to challenge how we think, what we see in ourselves and others, and what we believe we can make happen.

Because the future isn’t just something we wait for. It’s something we help create.

👀 Something’s coming this week…

We’ve been working behind the scenes, and it’s nearly time to start sharing what we’ve been up to. 👀

A few things to look forward to. A few things to get curious about. And some announcements we can’t wait to share with you.

Keep your eyes peeled. 👀❤️

We would like to thank our wonderful sponsors again for supporting our 2026 event 'Mind, Machine, Learning'. It would not be possible to host our events without the generous financial support of all our sponsors.

🎩 Do you believe in magic?

Maybe the better question is…

Do you believe you know how it works? 👀

Ed Sumner brought magic, comedy and a healthy dose of mischief to TEDxWolverhampton — and reminded us that sometimes the best experiences are the ones we can’t quite explain.

💬 Be honest… do you try to work out the trick? 👀

🎤 Words can make you think.

They can make you feel.

And sometimes… they can hit you somewhere you weren’t expecting.

Bilal Akram brought poetry, rhythm and storytelling to the TEDxWolverhampton stage — reminding us just how powerful language can be.

💬 What’s a line, lyric or piece of writing that’s stayed with you?

👀 What assumptions are you making?

We all have them.

About people. About situations. About what we think we know.

But what happens when we stop and question the assumptions we’ve made?

Tracy Turner explores the power of challenging our own thinking — and what can happen when we’re willing to look again.

💬 What’s an assumption you’ve had to rethink?

🌊 3,000 miles. 53 days. 20-foot waves.

And apparently… that wasn’t the hardest part.

Sam Weber knows a thing or two about what happens when the plan falls apart.

In our TEDxWolverhampton Fireside Chat, he talks resilience, leadership, teamwork and finding a way forward when you’re already in the middle of the storm.

🤖 What if the future of women’s health is already here?

For too long, women’s health has been an afterthought.

Inna Sokolova is changing that conversation — exploring how innovation and robotic surgery could transform the way we understand and treat women’s health.

But what happens when cutting-edge technology meets one of the most overlooked areas of medicine?
