PechaKucha Night

PechaKucha Night was conceived in 2003 as a place for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public.

But as we all know, give a mike to a designer (especially an architect) and you’ll be trapped for hours. The key to PechaKucha Night is its patented system for avoiding this fate. Each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds each – giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, the interest level up, and gives more people the chance to show.

PechaKucha (which is Japanese for the sound of conversation) has tapped into a demand for a forum in which creative work can be easily and informally shown, without having to rent a gallery or chat up a magazine editor. This is a† demand that seems to be global – as PechaKucha Night, without any pushing, has spread virally to over 100 cities across the world. Find a location and join the conversation

The bar opens at 19.30 and the speakers starts exactly at 20.20 as all over the world. Pecha Kucha is now in over 235 cities around the world. Welcome to an inspiring night with lots of fun and opportunity to meet interesting people.
