TEDx Palo Alto presents 

Cabinet of Curiosities

Event Overview:

TEDx Palo Alto 2026 invites you into a modern Cabinet of Curiosities, a contemporary reimagining of the 16th-century concept, a collection of objects, ideas, and discoveries to challenge prevailing worldviews and spark wonder.

In that same spirit, this year’s event brings together visionary thinkers and creators who are reshaping how we understand the world today. Through a tightly curated 75-minute program, speakers from medicine, quantum science, fusion, longevity, artificial intelligence, art, mindfulness, and frontier research will present bold ideas that illuminate the unknown and redefine the boundaries of human knowledge.

Each talk is designed not only to inform, but to provoke curiosity: What assumptions are no longer valid? What questions should we now be asking? And how might today’s breakthroughs shape the future we are collectively building?

Following the talks, guests are invited to a reception and networking gathering for meaningful conversation, deeper connection, and direct engagement with speakers, performers, and fellow attendees.

Let the inspiration begin!
