Ignite

Ignite is a community event sponsored by O'Reilly in the major cities across the Planet. It is 5 minutes speech of an individual on a Stage with 20 slides being rotated automatically in 15 seconds.

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.
