When Raneem took Centre Stage in a TedxCairo Conference...

“Eight years ago, I was playing a match and in the fifth game, the ref asked me whether a ball was right and not. it wasn't but I wanted to win so I told him it was right, and I sneaked an undeserved win. I couldn't sleep that night and lost the next match Intentionally because I thought I didn't deserve to be there in that match.

We all want to succeed, but what's really hard is to reach the top cleanly. Reach it and keep your values and principles.” Raneem El Welily Translated by Mohamed Samir

TEDxCairo 2014 Registration Process Explained

The application to attend TEDxCairo 2014 is about to open. In the case that you’re not acquainted with our registration process or have any questions, please read below for clarification.

What do I do if I want to attend TEDxCairo?

You apply. Before the conferences, we release an application form that everyone who wishes to attend should fill in. The applications are filtered and all applicants receive a response before the conference.

What happens after I submit the application?

You will receive an email by the notification deadline notifying you of the result of your application; whether it has been accepted or not.

If my application is accepted but I can no longer make it, what do I do?

In the acceptance email there is a confirmation form that you fill in with an RSVP of yes or no.

If my application is not accepted, can I apply again?

No, you can’t. Every individual gets one chance per conference to apply. You can apply for the next conference, though.

Can I submit more than one application?

No. Duplicate applications will lead to automatic disqualification.

Why application?

1. Let’s do the math

We have an online community of almost 91,000 people. Consequently thousands of people would like to attend the TEDxCairo conference.

Our venue capacity is up to 1,500.

2. The audience is central to the experience

So why not do it on a first-come-first serve basis if it’s a numbers issue? Because it’s not just about quantity, but - more importantly - quality.

TEDxCairo’s community is wonderfully diverse; it’s that diversity that drives all the vibrant conversation on all sorts of topics within the community. We need that diversity to be accurately reflected in the live audience. When you attend TEDxCairo, you don’t just watch the talks; you also share a common experience with the leading thinkers and doers from the TEDxCairo community.

So how do you decide who the “leading thinkers and doers are”?

Through the questions in the application. Every question is especially designed so that the overall response to the application provides the most accurate profile possible – on paper – of the applicant.

Is that why the questions are difficult?

Yes, it is. They’re meant primarily to be expressive

So how can I submit a “good” application?

The criteria is rather complex. But if there’s one piece of good advice we can give you, it’s to take your time and plan. The application will be open for at least a couple of weeks. That gives you ample time to check the questions, plan your answers, revise them and then submit them. No need to rush.

I'm not great with words, what should I do?

Have no fear! Based on all your feedback, we have provided an alternative this year. You can submit a personal (up to 90 seconds) video answering several questions that give us a better idea about you. Hopefully, this will allow you to better express yourself.

Do you have an idea worth spreading? Are you truly passionate about your idea? Now is your chance to deliver it to the world! Apply now to speak at our TEDxCairo 2014 conference! Application deadline is 21 December 2013.
