Ignite Seattle is the largest open submission public speaking event in the Pacific Northwest. Three times a year, one of the greatest audiences in the world gathers to hear interesting people tell interesting stories. Each speaker gets 20 slides, for 15 seconds each, to share a passion for 5 minutes – it’s an evening of curated discovery. We take pride in providing every audience with a deep sense of the community + possibility that surrounds us in Seattle in every moment.
We received a record number of talk submissions this time — and after an incredibly tough selection process, here’s the lineup ready to light up the stage.
