Ignite Amsterdam
Past and future events
Ignite is run by locals, for locals. The events are held around the world. Ignite is fast-paced and merciless, but most of all they're fun, thought-provoking nights, full of fresh ideas and clever insights. Speakers get five minutes to present their idea. They make use of twenty slides that auto-advance every fifteen seconds.
Mediamatic is proud to be organizing the Ignite Amsterdam events. Would you like to participate?
Our activities are made possible by the Creative Industries Fund NL and the municipality of Amsterdam.
