What is a “Pecha Kucha”-style presentation?
Speakers build PowerPoint or equivalent presentations with 20 slides, set to automatically advance every 20 seconds, for a total presentation length of 6 minutes and 40 seconds. This format encourages presentations to be distilled to their essential points, keeping audiences and speakers engaged and on topic.
Have an idea for something longer, or don’t have the ability to make a PowerPoint or equivalent presentation? Get in touch and we would be happy to discuss potential options. Call 867-667-4074 or email info@heritageyukon.ca.
