PechaKucha Hour on the RIBA/NBS Village at Ecobuild 2012

Present your own PechaKucha 20x20 at the RIBA/NBS 'Bite-sized Auditorium' within the RIBA Village.

Ecobuild is the world's largest event for sustainable design, construction and the built environment and the biggest UK construction event of any kind.

Within the RIBA Village we have a 'Bite-sized' auditorium where we will be hosting short talks and presentations from special guests throughout the exhibition. RIBA and NBS have attracted a number of high profile industry figures to present at the "RIBA Village Auditorium" over the course of the three days of Ecobuild, and this is an enviable and prestigious opportunity to present alongside them.

RIBA Village will be one of the most eye-catching stands at the exhibition and is a key focal point within the show. It is sure to attract a large number of attendees over the three days of Ecobuild, and this competition gives you the chance to present to them and demonstrate your knowledge and passion for an industry topic which means a lot to you and your business.

Each day between 1-2pm we will have "PechaKucha hour", where we have nine available slots for 20x20 presentations.

We will be promoting the PechaKucha hour in the run up to Ecobuild and throughout the show so there will be lots of opportunities to attract interested people to your presentation. We will also host the PechaKucha sessions on theNBS.com/riba-insight.com after the show.

What is PechaKucha 20x20?

PechaKucha (chit-chat in Japanese) 20x20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images forward automatically and you talk along to the images.
