The Organizing Committee of the III RIES18 Forum held a ‘Pechakucha’ at the Casa da Luz in Pontevedra. A meeting between cluster partners, Premium sponsors and guests with a current, modern and very dynamic format that facilitates direct and personal contact to create synergies, collaboration and common projects for the immediate future and, of course, to know the latest developments and news of the sector.
Its objective is to create a pleasant environment in which the speakers of the RIES2018 Forum, the member companies of the Galician Health Cluster and the local collaborators can carry out informal networking and engage in conversations in a relaxed way.
What´s a PechaKucha
PechaKucha is a Japanese term that means “whisper”, “chatter” or “conversation”. It is also a presentation format created in Japan in 2003 that has spread in event mode to more than 560 cities worldwide.
How is the 20 x 20 format like?
PechaKucha events are informal, fun and enjoyable meetings where different professionals meet and share their ideas and projects in a 20 × 20 format (20 images with a 20-second duration each).
It is also a presentation format created in which a group of presenters talk about their projects through 20 images, each lasting 20 seconds.
