Take part in the creation of the TEDxLaval 2019 stage. Create an innovative and inspired stage design that embodies the theme of 2019: Latitude and Commotion.

For the second time, TEDxLaval would like to present the opportunity for the Laval community to create the stage set for our 2019 event. We are calling on design students, designers, artists, architect and creative minds. The contest is open to any individual or team from Laval, or the Greater Montreal Area. Send us your set proposals for consideration by September 6, 2019. The winners will be announced on September 10, 2019 and will have approx. 1 month to build and complete their design.

Show us your creative interpretation of what this theme means to you! The winning design will be featured on the TEDxLaval stage on October 12, 2019. There will be over 300 people in attendance. The design will live-on in speaker videos after the conference, featured on YouTube and TEDxLaval.com.

It is also an opportunity to be part of the prestigious global movement TED.
