Table Topics (toastmasters)
The Toastmasters table topic session has one main aim: giving members the opportunity to speak of the cuff. You are generally given 1 to 2 minutes to convey your thoughts on a certain subject to your fellow members.
TedTalks :

Pecha Kucha
PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public.
It has turned into a massive celebration, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world, inspiring creatives worldwide. Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", it rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.
