Make Vegas your time to shine.  Vocalize your insight in five minutes...

 

Lightning Talks are nine five-minute talks in a fifty-minute time period.

Lightning Talks represent a much smaller investment of time than track speaking, and offer the chance to try out conference speaking without the heavy commitment. Lightning Talks are also an opportunity to present your single biggest bang-for-the buck idea quickly. Use this as an opportunity to give a talk for the first time, or the first time on a new topic. For a Lightning Talk, slides are not required, but if you do decide to make slides you only need a few.
