June 5, 2017 by Post

Tampa, Fla. – June 6, 2017 – Technova Florida, Inc. announced today that FairWarning® is the Presenting Sponsor of the ninth annual Ignite! Tampa Bay. The event which has sold out for the past four years returns with its simple premise: “Enlighten us, but make it quick.” Since 2006, Ignite has presented hundreds of talks around the world, sparking thriving Ignite communities in Portland, Sydney, Boulder, Baltimore, New York, and Tampa. Presenters are asked: If you had five minutes on stage, what would you say? What if you got only 20 slides, and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds? Touching briefly on a variety of topics, from the DIY community to parent-educator relationships, and presented by anyone and everyone, Ignite events are all-ages, fast-paced, sometimes-unpredictable, and always thought-provoking.

Co-founded by Brady Forrest, Technology Evangelist for O’Reilly Media, and Bre Pettis of Makerbot.com, formerly of MAKE Magazine, started Ignite in Seattle and Ignite has become an international phenomenon in over 350 cities worldwide. Ignite’s mission is “Everyone Speaks” builds confidence in individuals and that events that build community.
