Kyle Napalan is CEO and Founder of The Dial Collective in Murrieta, California. The Dial is a community of musicians, artists, all types of creative people who are trying to impact the world; even if just on the local level, even if just in our own backyards. There is no better time to come together and create, whatever medium you choose and whoever your audience is; just strive for the genuine, be open to change, not afraid to leave your mark.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
