You might know TEDxRotterdam for the world-changing talks, but there is a massive, heartbeat-like organization working behind the curtain. Meet Odair Pereira, the visionary fashion designer and creative powerhouse orchestrating the pulse of this year’s event.
We just caught up with Oda at his breathtaking fashion show inside the church. Seeing him in his element—where every single stitch, lighting cue, and model’s step was curated to absolute perfection—made one thing crystal clear: he is bringing that exact same meticulous magic to TEDx.
Oda isn’t just planning an event; he’s curating an experience. From the seamless flow of the day and the electric half-time shows, to the catering, the vibe, and the high-energy networking spaces where local change-makers actually connect—Oda is behind it all.
Witness the vision come to life.

What does it take to bring TEDxRotterdam to life? For us, it takes a community of people who believe in it.

From the volunteers putting in the hours to the partners who help make it happen, everyone plays a part in bringing ideas to the stage.

As Mirjam shares, we’re always happy to welcome more people into that community. Interested in volunteering or partnering with us? We’d love to hear from you.

What happens when you trust your own path, even when others doubt you?

As an entrepreneur, Samira Bouharrou has learned the importance of believing in what you want to achieve. That mindset started early. Growing up, she chose not to let other people’s expectations define her future, but to focus her energy on finding her own way forward.

“If I can’t sit at your table, I’ll build my own.”

This November, Samira takes the TEDxRotterdam stage to share her story as we explore The Meaning of Acceleration.

The Meaning of Acceleration – Where Are We Running To?

08/10/2026

Seven years after the last TEDxRotterdam, someone had an idea:

What if we brought it back?

Meet Laisa, the organiser behind TEDxRotterdam 2026.

The idea came to her through a dream. One she couldn’t quite forget. The more she thought about it, the more she felt she had to do it.

So she did.

Picking up TEDxRotterdam after seven years came with plenty of questions, doubts and moments of can we really do this?

Luckily, she didn’t have to answer them alone.

Along the way, people showed up. With ideas, encouragement, time, trust and a belief in what TEDxRotterdam could become again.

And now, after months of building, planning and dreaming, we’re just 4 weeks away.

On 11 November, TEDxRotterdam returns to the Nieuwe Luxor Theater.

See you there! ❤️🤍

What if the answer to acceleration is finding your own rhythm?

Blending music, culture and inner work, Indra Diallo is a Dutch Guinean harpist, composer and therapeutic practitioner. This November, she shares her perspective from the TEDxRotterdam stage.

Five years ago, Indra changed direction and experienced what she describes as a cultural awakening. Reconnecting with her roots became a journey back to herself, her identity and the things that give life meaning.

For Indra, music is more than sound. It can help us reconnect the things within us that can easily become disconnected: heart and mind, love and loss, who we are and how we move through the world. She believes that when we reconnect with ourselves, we can find our own rhythm, follow our talents and create more space for joy, connection and growth.

On 11 November, Indra brings this perspective to the Nieuwe Luxor Theater as we explore The Meaning of Acceleration and ask what happens when, instead of moving faster, we pause long enough to find our own rhythm.

Last weekend, we stepped away from the usual meeting room and came together on a boat 🚤

It was an evening of conversations, laughter, new connections, and a chance to simply enjoy the people behind TEDx Rotterdam

We were welcomed by one of our partners and supporters, founded by — an entrepreneur whose own journey is one of resilience, innovation and determination

Wesley was also one of the speakers at the previous TEDx Rotterdam edition, making this gathering feel even more connected to the journey we’re continuing together.

Indeed TEDx is not only about what happens on stage,
it’s also about the people you meet, the conversations you have, and the ideas that continue moving long after the talks are over

And this time, we were literally moving 🌊

Now, we’re inviting you to move with us.
Join us on 11 November at Luxor Theater Rotterdam and become part of the next chapter

TEDx Rotterdam is not only about the ideas shared on stage. It’s also about what happens when those ideas bring people together

Our partner Pop It will be taking care of exactly that: helping us create meaningful connections throughout the event

Through activities, games and shows, the aim is not only to entertain, but to bring people together and make connection feel natural

Can we network without the pressure of trying to be who we’re supposed to be?

Can we connect while simply being ourselves, without restraint? Or have we become too rigid for that?

And as technology accelerates our lives, is it helping us connect more — or disconnect more?

TEDx Rotterdam will be a place to explore these questions
