2019/Lightning Talks

Lightning talks are very short back-to-back presentations. At WikiConference North America 2019, we have two lightning talk blocks, with each talk lasting up to seven minutes. These talks allow us to maximize the breadth of content covered at the conference, and give attendees the opportunity to share their stories, ideas, case studies, and more.

Interested in participating? Just pick an open time slot and add your topic and name to one of the two blocks below!

Block 1: Saturday @ 4 PM
Location: Stata 32-141 (90 Seats)

Block 2: Sunday @ 11 AM
Location: Stata 32-141 (90 Seats)
