Win a PechaKucha 20x20 presentation slot at Ecobuild 2012

PechaKucha (chit-chat in Japanese) 20x20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds, and the images forward automatically as you talk along to them. Here’s your chance to present from the RIBA/NBS stand at Ecobuild 2012 in one of nine PechaKucha slots available daily.

Ecobuild is the world’s largest event for sustainable design, construction and the built environment and the biggest UK construction event of any kind. The RIBA village will be one of the most eye-catching stands at the exhibition and a key focal point. From our auditorium we will host short talks and presentations by leading industry figures throughout the three-day duration of the show. Now we’re offering you an enviable and prestigious opportunity to present alongside them.

Each day between 1pm and 2pm we will have PechaKucha Hour, where nine PechaKucha 20x20 presentations will take place back to back. If you would like to present one of these all you have to do is enter our competition. It’s absolutely free and your presentation will potentially be seen by hundreds of specifiers. The 2011 event had over 55,000 visitors.

All PechaKucha sessions will also be featured on http://www.riba-insight.com after the show.
