What happens when you take a talented industry speaker, get them to talk about a topic of their choice, but restrict them to 20 slides in a little under seven minutes?

You get the madness of the Pocket Gamer PechaKucha Sessions, a brilliantly to-the-point presentation event to finish off the first day of PG Connects Helsinki 2016 (September 5th).

Last time out, Oscar Clark ended up on stage without trousers (it's okay, he had stockings on).

So, yes, it's always excellent fun and awesomely handled by Rovio's Wilhelm Taht who is looking for more volunteers to join his intrepid gang of PechaKuchers.

Confirmed speakers so far:

Wilhelm Taht, Executive Vice President, Games @ Rovio Entertainment
Oscar Clark, Consultant & Evangelist @ Unity Technologies
Maarten Noyons, Founder & CEO @ IMGA
Eric Seufert, Partner, Heracles
Mark Sorrell, Vice President, Product @ Rovio Entertainment
