What is TEDx Dhanmondi

Where Big
Ideas
Live.

TEDxDhanmondi is an independently organized TED event licensed by TED, dedicated to bringing the global spirit of "ideas worth spreading" to the heart of Dhanmondi, Dhaka.

Youth Quake 2.0 is led by a new independent team — separate from the organizers of the first edition, but holding the same spirit alive. Where 1.0 filled a 1,000-seat auditorium, 2.0 turns inward: an intimate room of no more than 400, focused on quality over quantity and a few powerful, well-curated talks.

The Legacy
We Build On.

Youth Quake 1.0: "Unleashing the Power of a Generation" took place at Rupayan Trade Center, Dhaka — presented by Shanta Asset Management to an intimate audience of roughly 300. Ten voices stepped onto the red dot, organized by Mainuddin Bhuiyan Tanvir and team. This is the stage 2.0 inherits.

Youth Quake 2.0 — The Next Chapter

A Conscious
Generation,
Rising.

Where 1.0 unleashed power, 2.0 sharpens conscience. A new independent team, a smaller room, and a tighter lineup — built around fewer voices that say more. Speakers, date, and venue announcements roll out through 2026.

01
New independent organizing team
Led by Organizer & Licensee Mahedi Hasan Nabil, separate from the team behind 1.0 — but carrying its spirit forward.
02
Intimate room. Max 400.
A deliberate downshift from a 1,000+ auditorium to a focused gathering of 400 — built for attention, not scale.
03
Quality over quantity
Fewer speeches, deeper curation. Every talk earns its place on the red dot. Speaker reveals begin soon.
