TED Talks Come to Marriot Hotels

The famous educational organization TED will now be talking at the Marriot Hotels.

Marriot Hotels has partnered with the nonprofit devoted to “ideas worth spreading” to bring curated and educational TED Talks, blogs, and original ideas to hotel guests worldwide.

Travelers who stay at Marriott Hotels will now have access to thought-provoking and inspirational content to spread good and progressive ideas–ideas that we need now more than ever in the face of this new and uncertain era in American history. The content is curated by TED, and are selected based on themes that are topical and relevant to guests, including curiosity, innovation, travel, and entrepreneurship. The themes are set to change every quarter to keep content new and refreshing.

In addition to this proactive partnership, Marriot Hotels will also host a series of five global TED Talks Fellows salons in Seattle, London, Dubai, Bangkok, and Santiago. The themes and speakers for the salons will coincide with the content themes during that period.

Matthew Carroll, VP and global brand manager of Marriot Hotels said, “At Marriot Hotels, everything we do is guided by our belief that travel expands the mind and triggers new and creative ways of thinking. We know that travelers today look for more in a hotel and we are bringing to life new innovations that help elevate guests' stay to memorable experiences.

TED content does not only entertain, but educates and engages on topics that are relevant to our guests. Together, we are delivering a series of original content, events, and experiences that will spark travelers' creativity and inspire new perspectives.”
