A series of short, sharp, and enlightening talks on one epic night! Ignite Berry is returning on Saturday 9th November 2024, with its famously fast-paced and fun presentations that are guaranteed to blow your mind and enlighten your thinking.

About Ignite
Ignite is a series of speedy presentations
Be prepared for a fun night of lightning-fast talks. Talks delivered by people who know their stuff. Plot twist, their talks have to be exactly 5 minutes. Nothing like a time constraint to squeeze out the essence of someone’s knowledge. You will walk away, mind blown, energised, entertained and most definitely a little more enlightened.
We'll have delicious food and drinks for sale courtesy of our friends at Pickled Ink Kitchen and Work Life Berry
