TEDxChicago 2025: The Future is Human

12:30–7:30 pm Harris Theater, Millennium Park

205 East Randolph St., Chicago, IL 60601

Our future feels uncertain, yet we are resoundingly called to what matters most: You and me. Us. Humanity, itself. At TEDxChicago 2025, we believe the most powerful force shaping tomorrow is our collective agency, imagination, desire for connection and laughter, dignity, and generosity. This year, our speakers and artists arrive on Chicago’s stage to share their ideas, showcasing their fierce commitment to unify science, technology, and sustainability with the essential principles of compassion, justice, and care.

This is our love letter to Chicago.

Join us at TEDxChicago 2025: The Future is Human.

UChicago speakers: David Awschalom, Wendy Freedman, and Heather Zheng
