PechaKucha Night Brussels Vol. 69
Being a successful entrepreneur means being open, resourceful, constantly coming up with new ideas and pushing boundaries. It is not always easy, but you can learn from others that have been there!
PechaKucha event is a unique format, where in one evening we will showcase 10 stories of sustainability, design, and innovation. You will learn about new approaches to existing businesses, extraordinary design-thinking, and sustainable solutions. We want to inspire you to challenge the status quo, think outside the box, and follow the unconventional paths!
On 18 September March at 20.00, we invite you to the PechaKucha Night Brussels Volume 69 edition, which is organised by Architempo in partnership with Beci. Join us to hear 10 inspirational, exciting, and sometimes provocative stories of sustainability, design, and innovation - in just 6 min 40 sec each!
What is PechaKucha?
The PechaKucha, translated from Japanese as 'chit-chat', is a storytelling format that uses images rather than reading text from the slides.
It was devised and shared by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Klein Dytham Architecture. The first PechaKucha took place in 2003 in Tokyo, and today more than 1,300 cities have PechaKucha Nights.
What is the PechaKucha format?
The PechaKucha concept: each speaker has 400 seconds - 6 minutes 40 sec - for a presentation in 20 images. Each image is on screen for only 20 seconds, and they auto-advance. No more, no less.
PechaKucha nights typically have 8-14 presentations, and topics are diverse.

The Brussels edition was launched by Alok b. Nandi of Architempo in Brussels in 2007, and to date it has had more than 1,000 speakers sharing their narrative in 400 seconds - this is 6 minutes 40 seconds.
