Pecha Kucha Night

Yes, it's another 'first' for APSS. We are very proud to invite you to attend our inaugural Pecha Kucha Night featuring 9 APSS Associate Members.

What is Pecha Kucha?

Pecha Kucha was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It has turned into a massive celebration, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world, inspiring creativity worldwide.

Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of 'chit chat', Pecha Kucha rests on a simple presentation format of 20 slides x 20 seconds (6 min 40 sec). This format makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.

What will happen in APSS Pecha Kucha Night?

When Andrew Chow showcased the Pecha Kucha Night at our March meeting (in his Pecha Kucha style presentation), we received so much interest that 9 APSS Associate Members signed up immediately to be our presenters at this unique event. They will all be encouraged to invite a cheer team of their friends and business associates.

All CSPs (Certified Speaking Professionals) and Professional Members who attend this Pecha Kucha Night will be invited to be 'friendly judges' based on 3 criteria: Content, Delivery and Humour. There will be one overall winner of the night. And yes, there are prizes!
