MiniTOC Vancouver is Looking for Ignite Presenters
MiniTOC Vancouver is looking for presenters to share their innovative, world-altering bookish/techy/artsy/Vancouvery stories in a quick form presentation at the first annual MiniTOC Vancouver Ignite.

When:
Saturday, October 20th at 6pm.
Where:
Centre for Digital Media on 685 Great Northern Way in Vancouver.
How It Works:
Each presenter will get 5 minutes to share the story behind their product or service, using 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds. Presenters should present their story with as much energy and excitement as they can.
