Presentation karaoke with PhD friends - 1st social event

Thursday 25 Sept 2025, 18:00 → 21:00 Europe/Zurich

CERN

Welcome to our first social event with the PhD tandem group @CERN! 

For this gathering, the theme is a ppt karaoke (presentation karaoke). The rules are simple: 

1. Everyone prepares a slide deck (5–10 slides). 
2. The topic is open, slides should be presentable by another person.
3. Bring your slides with you to the event! There will be a laptop available to show the slides, although you can also bring your own. 
4. During the event, you will be assigned a random deck and must present it as if it was yours.
5. Presentations last about 5 minutes.

Times in the agenda are orientative. Depending on when we finish, those who can stay longer are invited to stay for a little network and chat. Feel free to bring snacks and drinks (non-alcoholic)! 

Please, register below if you wish to participate. 

Excited to see you there!
