What is Ignite Chicago?
An evening of 5 minute talks on a variety of topics presented by a variety of speakers looking to ignite and inspire.
Ignite Chicago is a high-energy evening of five minute presentations by people who have an idea - and the guts - to get onstage and share it with fellow creative folks. Each presentation is composed of 20 slides that automatically advance every 15 seconds. Presentations can range from how to build a resume to a history of the Samurai sword to a manifesto on boxes.
Join us for Ignite Chicago and become exposed to new creative ideas and people!
