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?  Ignite is an O'Reilly event started in Seattle in 2006. Since then hundreds of 5 minute talks have been given across the world. There are thriving Ignite communities around the world in Seattle, Portland, Paris, NYC and now Dublin. Ticket price inlcudes sandwiches after the event.
