We started TEDtoChina back in October, 2008. It was an idea from Tony Yet and Oliver Ding back then to make the TED message heard among the 1.3 billion plus Chinese speaking folks in the world.

We got a kick start with some 20 pieces of Chinese translations of TED presentations and have since grown into a robust community of TED fans all around China.

TEDtoChina is a community of volunteers who are committed to the idea of TED, and are active in spreading the TED meme.So we did Chinese translations of TEDtalks, which produced big welcoming response.The Chinese name of this website “TED中国粉丝团” literary means a fans club of TED in China.
