Ignite is coming to Ottawa, and the first series of talks will be
held at the Velvet Room in the Byward Market on November 12, 2009.
For
those of you unfamiliar with the concept, Ignite events feature a
lineup of speakers each given 5 minutes and 20 slides to impart their
considerable wisdom to the audience. Topics range from business or
media-related topics to eclectic topics such as what happens to your
online identity after you die, and the acoustics of a custom guitar.
The
night begins at 6:00, with the talks starting at 7:00. There will be
an intermission in the middle of the talks, and the night will be
capped off by choosing the favourite talk of the night, by the
extremely scientific means of loud clapping.
Line-up for the night
Adele McAlear – Death and Digital Legacy
Jairus Pryor – How I Stole $15M from the Canadian Mint
Ian Graham – Coworking
Sue Murphy – Online Community
David Akin – Media and Technology
