We are happy to announce details of how you can get tickets for Ignite London 5 at 93 Feet East on 8th November 2011.

If you didn’t already realise tickets are free and only guarantees admission for one person until 19:30, after this point we reserve the right to let other eager people in who have waited or tried their luck at the door.

As tickets have previously sold out in record time of 5 minutes or less, we have decided to continue releasing them in 3 batches to give everyone a fair chance of grabbing one. We will announce each batch release again closer to the time to help remind you.

So head on over to our Eventbrite Register for Ignite London 5 in London, United Kingdom  on Eventbrite page and keep a close eye on this site and our twitter account as tickets will be made available on:

Thursday 20th October 2011 at 1230

 Sunday 30th October 2011 at 1900

Tuesday 1st November 2011 at 1230

Tickets are limited so please only take one if you are able to attend. Previous events have shown ticket holders not informing us they would be unable to make it. This meant that people on the waitlist were unable to have a chance of attending in their place.

Therefore if you are unable to attend please inform us as soon as possible via tickets@ignitelondon.net, thus allowing us to redistribute the ticket to someone able to use it.

We wish you the best of luck in getting a ticket and look forward to seeing you at Ignite London 5.

Announcing Ignite London 5: 93 Feet East, 8th November 2011

Author: | Filed under: Announcement, Ignite London, Speakers, Venue | Tags: , , , , , | No Comments »

We’ve been quiet for a while, but the tinder has well and truly been lit! We’re back and raring to go! Ignite London will be back at 93 Feet East in Shoreditch on the 8th November!

 

We are now looking for speakers. If you had five minutes on a stage what would you say?

If there’s a topic you are passionate about and you want to spend five minutes telling a very enthusiastic audience all about it then this is your chance.  We’re after a mix of high-energy, funny and serious, social and personal, high and low tech, crafty, webby, environmental, quirky and mainstream. Making us laugh is a good thing, making us think is even better! The only thing we insist on is No Sales Pitches.  To get an idea of the wide range of previous talks take a look at the videos of previous Ignite Speakers.

So go on, “Enlighten us, but make it quick.”

How to submit a Proposal

Complete the online submission form on our Speak page.

Please include as much information about your proposed talk as you can, as this will help us determine who is chosen for the line-up.  We will endeavour to respond to your proposal as soon as we can to confirm we’ve received it.

By submitting a proposal, you are agreeing that we may use your name and the title of your talk within Ignite London promotional material.

Deadline

Proposals must be received by 6 pm on Friday 7th October 2011.  Based on the previous events we expect to receive many more submissions than can be accommodated so the more information about your talk you can give the better.

The Selection Process

Talks will be selected based on whether the topic is interesting, inventive, creative and unique. We will also make an attempt to select a wide range of topics, so that there isn’t too much overlap in terms of content and subjects that have been covered at previous Ignite London events.  We’ll let you know soon after the deadline whether your proposal has been successful in order to give you as much time as possible to prepare.

We look forward to reading your proposals and good luck!
