EPUB Summit / PechaKucha Night Brussels

Call for speakers

March 9th 2017 - PechaKucha Night Brussels Vol. 56 !

PechaKucha concept : each speaker has 400 seconds - 6 minutes 40 sec. - for a presentation in 20 images. Each image is on screen for only 20 seconds. No more, no less. The PechaKucha format is devised and shared by Klein Dytham Architecture.

The first PechaKucha took place in 2003 in Tokyo and today more than 960 cities have PechaKucha Nights. The Brussels edition was launched by Alok b. Nandi / Architempo in Brussels in 2007.

The 9th March edition takes place in partnership with the EPUB Summit 2017. The first EPUB Summit, held in Bordeaux in April 2016, was a huge success. Many discussions included the future of the ebook industry, advanced technologies in use and accessibility issues for print-disabled people. With this in mind, EDRLab is organizing the second edition of the EPUB Summit on the 9th and 10th of March 2017 in Brussels. The first day will end with a PechaKucha where speakers will be sharing visions and challenges on reading, on books, on ebooks.
