PechaKucha
Forget boring research presentations. PechaKucha is a method for giving dynamic presentations. The formula: 20 slides with mostly images and just 20 seconds per slide. A presentation lasts exactly 6 minutes and 40 seconds. The slides advance automatically.
The result? Inspiring presentations and an engaged audience. An ideal format to let different speakers have their say in a short time.
During the workshop you will learn how to give a powerful PechaKucha presentation.
