What to expect in your presentation

  • Is the content capable of making the judges and the audience your friends?
    We encourage you to share your awareness of the issues as well as the social context. If the judges understand the issues and sympathize with your thoughts, they will begin to feel a sense of camaraderie and a desire to work together to solve the problem.
  • Is it clear what the purpose of your participation is (and the support you need)?
    In addition to the judges, there are many other visitors to the venue. They are a reserve army of peers with diverse networks and expertise. If you are clear in your presentation that you need this kind of support (first of all, you need friends, ideas, expertise, etc.), it will be a shortcut to solving that issue.

Rivanes can also help you with the above organization, and we would be happy to discuss things with you during our meetings or even in our regular emails.

Tips

It is easier for people to remember the company name and business as a set if the company name or logo is included in the header/footer of the slide, etc.
