Overview

PechaKucha operates a virtual storytelling platform built around its “20 images x 20 seconds” format, allowing users to produce and share recorded content, host live events online and offline, and build communities. The platform is licensed by content creators, schools, businesses, and government agencies for visual stories, information and presentations. Community organizers host live events in more than 1,250 cities across 140 countries, and thousands of individual creators use the service for digital talks, sessions and chats.
