Ignite is coming to… Manila!!!

February 19, 2010

“Enlighten us, but make it quick.” 

This new trend and style in powerpoint presentation has finally reached Philippine shores.  Manila will join more than 50 cities in six continents on March 1 to 4 for the Global Ignite Week. 

A motley line-up of 16 individuals will present about their passion, initiative and/or areas of expertise in a form defined by Forbes.com as “the end to boring presentations”.

Hear from the likes of Bill Shaw, editor-in-chief of Jeepney Magazine; Paul Zialcita, percussionist and youth leader; Carlos Celdran, changemaker and tourism entrepreneur; and many more!

Ignite is an on-going series of fast-paced presentations using 20 slides that automatically advance every 15 seconds.  To me, it’s like TED….only shorter.

RSVP now at the Ignite Manila website.  The event will be held on March 2 at Mag:net Cafe, Fort Bonifacio from 7pm to 11pm.
