In partnership with TEDx Warrenton, we're hosting an American Idol-style pitch competition at our May 16th chapter meeting in Vienna, VA. Ten contestants will deliver 2-minute pitches to a live panel of judges, three finalists will face a Q&A round, and one winner will walk away with the Golden Ticket — a coveted invitation to speak at TEDx Warrenton 2026.

Whether you've been dreaming of the TED stage or simply want to sharpen your pitch skills, this is your chance.
