If you aren’t familiar with TED, it is a nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading in the areas of Technology, Entertainment and Design. It was started as 1984 as a conference and they now have two annual conferences, among many across the world.
The “Ads Worth Spreading” challenge is an initiative to find ads that communicate ideas with consumers in the same way that TED wants to communicate with its audience.
