Presentation Guidelines
- Share one great idea—This is your opportunity to tell a story, motivate, and inspire.
- There is a six-minute time limit to each presentation.
- Limit your slides—for instance, if you have 20 slides, you'll have 18 seconds per slide; if you have 6 slides, you'll have 60 seconds per slide.
Reminder: No copyrighted images will be allowed.
- No live demos—However, you can use the presentation feature in ArcGIS Explorer Online or other presentation formats like Prezi or OpenOffice.
- All presentations must be noncommercial.
Partners must have a client as the primary presenter. Any presentation must focus on your client's success and how Esri software provided a solution.
