The TEDxSanta Cruz is an independent TEDx event founded in 2011 by David Warren, a retired Cabrillo College Professor.

History

Warren was drawn to the new TEDx program description. "It was an epiphany for me as I saw how I could satisfy my insatiable curiosity while meeting some of the most inspired people in our community and beyond. I applied immediately". Only until after receiving the license did he really start thinking about how it was going to manifest.[3] This initiative is independently organized by a group of entrpreneurs, artists, philanthropists, and educators called the "TEDxSanta Cruz Leadership Team".
