What does Space Invaders have to do with an Eco-cubby? We’re not sure either but we know you will be able to draw your own conclusions at 20/360.
20/360 where each presenter has a strict 6 minutes (360 seconds) to present 20 slides to deliver their “piece”. This year’s presentations will uncover the unexpected and be delivered by the unexpected and boy have we chosen some good uns! Hosted by the wonderful Helen Bock, over two nights you will hear great stories, some incredibly personal, some incredibly funny, but all very different from each other.
Join us for an early evening drink at the bar and prepare yourself for some great storytelling from across the land.
