Ignite<\/a> is a “fast-paced, fun, thought-provoking, social, local, global” evening of “high-energy 5-minute talks by people who have an idea.” Specifically, as the presenter you get exactly 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds. No running over. No slide remote control.<\/p>\n

The theme of the evening was “Lean Startup<\/a>” a set of principles (clearly communicated by Eric Ries) of building startups in a more efficient manner.<\/p>\n

I presented the five step process of building Petabytes<\/a> on a Budget. It was a blast and I highly recommend Ignite events and the Ignite format to anyone wanting to communicate an idea.
