CareerCamp Ignite/PechKucha style presentation evening

[Douglas E. Welch]

Not sure if any of you are familiar with the Ignite/PechaKucha presentation evenings, but I was thinking about perhaps trying to organize a career-focused evening of these 5-6 minute talks.

The basics of these presentations are... 

Each speaker can use 20 slides which automatically change every 15 seconds (PechaKucha uses 20 secs). This results in a very tight 5-6 minute talk. Afterwards, speakers can mingle with the audience to discuss their topics further.

In most cases, the speakers apply to participate and their topics are reviewed by a volunteer committee as there are typically more talks submitted than fit within the given time frame.

Here are links to the Ignite and PechaKucha sites for examples of the style on a huge variety of topics.

Any interest from our usual CareerCamp group in something like this?
