Ignite comes to the UK.

Starting at 6.00 and going on till 9pm, the evening will comprise a series of Lightning Talks on a host of technology-related topics.

============================================================

What is Ignite?

If you had five minutes on stage what would you say? What if you only got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds? Around the world geeks have been putting together Ignite nights to show their answers.
Ignite was started in Seattle in 2006 by Brady Forrest and Bre Pettis. Since then 100s of 5 minute talks have been given across the world. There are thriving Ignite communities in Seattle, Portland, Paris, and NYC.

============================================================

If you want to present, please remember:
# Be no longer than 5 minutes
# Be on an innovative topic (no sales pitches, please!)
# Be viewable on a PC [a MacBook Pro with Powerpoint and Keynote, and PDF] with standard AV equipment
# Did we mention, no Sales Pitches.
