Lightning Talks
Please add your lightning talk for the FOSSASIA Summit 2017 here.
Lightning Talks are short lectures (almost) any conference participant may give!
Bring your infectious enthusiasm to an audience with a short attention span! Discuss a program, software, hardware, system or technique! Pitch your projects and ideas or try to rally a crew of people to join you! Whatever you bring, make it quick!
Lightning talk sessions are taking place on Saturday/Day 2 (general lightning talks) and Sunday/Day 3 (talks about Blockchain) of the event.
The lightning talks on Saturday have a slot of 5 minutes including setup. The blockchain talks have 10 minutes including setup on Sunday.
On Saturday sessions start at 12:40 pm. On Sunday sessions start at 2:30pm.
