Ignite Sydney

If you had 5 minutes on stage what would you say? What if you only got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds? Why is this a good idea?
(8)

Around the world geeks have been putting together Ignite nights to enlighten us - quickly. The idea of Ignite is simple – make the presenters stick to a rigid format of 20 slides, each of which changes automatically after 15 seconds, giving a guaranteed 5 minute presentation. It forces the presenters to think long and hard about every slide. How many times have you heard the presenter say “this sl

ide isn’t important”? Well – get rid of it then! Conversely, there are the presenters who talk to a single slide for 10 minutes, by which time you’ve lost interest, the plot, and probably the will to live. Ignite is all about making the slides dynamic and exciting, and forcing the presenters to think about what they show. Best-selling author Scott Berkun has a great article at Forbes.com which discusses why Ignite is the way of future presentations. If you’re sick of Death By Powerpoint, then come along to Ignite Sydney, where you’re guaranteed a fun night of entertaining and educational presentations. Ignite Sydney is curated and managed by Stephen Lead.
