Ignite Baltimore!

*UPDATE* See the complete list of speakers for Ignite Baltimore at ignitebaltimore.com.

If you had five minutes on stage, what would you say to Baltimore? What if you only got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds?

On October 16th at 6 pm, 16 artists, technologists, thinkers, and personalities will answer this challenge at Ignite Baltimore #1. The event is sponsored by advertising.com, and will take place at The Wind-Up Space (12 W. North Ave).

Tickets are free, but space is limited. RSVP at ignitebaltimore1.eventbrite.com to ensure you get a seat.

There will also be plenty of time to network with other professionals and make new connections. The night will begin with a contest to test your creative mettle.

We welcome any topic as long as it's interesting, from technology to culture to business to philosophy. We're always looking for new speakers, but please, no product demos. Instead, present a how-to, a travelogue, something inspirational, lessons learned, or a forecast. If you're interested in speaking, please email mike@ignitebaltimore.com.
