TEDxUCR 2026 Conference
“Turning Points” The moments that change everything.
Every major shift in history begins with a turning point.
- A moment when an idea challenges the status quo.
- A discovery that reshapes how we understand the world.
- A decision that alters the course of a life, a discipline, or a community.
TEDxUCR 2026: Turning Points explores the pivotal moments that transform how we think, live, and lead.
Through a series of curated TED style talks, speakers from across the UC Riverside community will share stories of insight, innovation, and courage, revealing how turning points emerge in research, creativity, leadership, culture, and personal journeys.
