We’re only a few days away from OMRS19! Have you been thinking about what you want to share? Wondering about the best way to do it?
Lightning talks are the perfect way to share an idea or topic to all conference participants in a fun, rapid-fire way. These concise presentations are intended to grab the audience’s attention, and convey what you want people to learn more about within 5 minutes. You are welcome to share any topic you want, but be prepared to do it within the time allotted!
Our schedule has enough time set aside for roughly 10 people to give a lightning talk. If you’d like to learn more, check out this video for some hints and tricks . And if you are all set to go, please submit your proposed lightning talk topic below!
Please include a title and a short description . Putting “####” in front of your title will highlight it in your post.
Please limit replies only to proposed lightning talks (avoid side discussion) – i.e., if you want to discuss any entry below or this topic in general, click on the timestamp for the post (on the top right edge of it) and then click the “+ New Topic” link to create a linked topic.
If you want to see something… vote for it! If someone has suggested a lightning talk you would like to see, please “like” the post by clicking its heart icon.

Presentations must be uploaded before the lightning session begins. If you have not uploaded your presentation, then you will be skipped or will need to present without slides, since we will not be taking time between presenters to change laptops.
