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!




Topics include:

  • How to make a baby smart
  • Choosing my religion (may or may not contain bad parodies of REM songs)
  • The future of book publishing
  • YouTube video optimization
  • ...and MORE!
