Ignite Talk Format

One idea. Five minutes. Make it count.

Ignite Talks are fast-paced, high-impact presentations designed to deliver one powerful idea in just 5 minutes.

You’ll present using a structured format:
• 20 slides
• 15 seconds per slide (auto-advance)
• 5 minutes total

No fluff. No wandering. Just you, your message, and the audience.

The best Ignite Talks are clear, focused, and leave the audience with something they’ll remember — and use.

If you can’t say it clearly in 5 minutes… it’s not ready yet.
11
What is the title of your Ignite Talk?* This field is required.Make it clear, compelling, and benefit-driven. This title may be used in the event program and agenda.
12
What is the ONE idea you will deliver in your Ignite Talk?* This field is required.Keep this focused and specific. Your Ignite Talk should center around a single, clear idea—not multiple topics. Think in terms of one insight, one shift, or one powerful takeaway the audience will remember. If your idea feels broad, it’s likely too big for this format.
13
What outcome or shift will the audience experience from your talk?* This field is required.What will be different for the audience after your talk? Describe the change in how they think, act, or see something. The strongest talks create a clear shift—not just share information.
