Preparing the Slides
- think about your slides last
- create a consistent look and feel
- avoid slides with lots of text
- use simple photos that enhance meaning
- use storytelling
- have a focused message that you want your audience to retain; 1 slide = 1 message
- know your audience
Presenting the Slides
- glance technology: take a pause between slides; let the audience take a look at the slides and then listen to the speaker for details
- create a connection with the audience
- learn from TED talks how to present to a wide audience
- "I noticed that in academia we tend to emphasize methodology for about 10 slides, and in the industry, they only have one slide of the method and 10 slides of results and implication of results aka. discussion."
- leave detailed background explanations to follow-up questions
- pictures are generally better than words
Present Research Project to Corporate Audience

- build up to your research: research agenda or trajectory, such as previously published papers; a personal story that motivates the work
- one slide on implementation (language, libraries, modules, data structures, algorithms)
