Pitch presentations
All pitch sessions are 60 minutes filled with a maximum of 8 presentations. Pitch presentations are oral presentations of 5 minutes, there will be 8 pitches of each 5 minutes in one pitch session and 20 minutes left for questions.
IMPORTANT: Your slides are needed by 28 October in order to create a full pitch session.
Your slides:
- For pitch presentations, the conference has a maximum of 5 PowerPoint slides (including introduction and end slides!). Please note that if you have more slides, the presentation will not be validated.
- Please don’t forget to take an extra copy of your presentation to Berlin (USB-stick and/or send it to your Gmail/your Hotmail address).
- Be sure that the PowerPoint slides have the same layout all way through.
- Observe that the content of each slide is not too detailed.
- Avoid showing big tables (‘busy slides’) and then ask the audience just to concentrate on a small part of the table. Prepare the results specific for your presentation.
- Graphs and figures are often better than tables at an oral presentation. Flow charts are very appropriate to describe material.
- Films and other interactive material or animations are not possible.
