5 Tips To Deliver A Winning Worldwide AI Hackathon Presentation

Worldwide AI Hackathon is a fantastic opportunity for developers, data scientists, and AI enthusiasts to showcase their ideas and compete for prizes and funding. Yet, coding isn’t the only difficult part of the hackathon. Delivering a winning presentation can also be extremely challenging, especially when you have to do it in front of 500+ offline attendees and 3000-5000 online viewers including AI executives, thought leaders, and talents. In this blog post, we will share five tips to help you deliver a killer presentation at Worldwide AI Hackathon and ace this contest!

 

 

According to a study by Harvard Business Review, understanding your audience is the foundation of effective communication. One of the key benefits of the Worldwide AI Hackathon is the diverse group of participants it attracts, including students, researchers, developers, and industry professionals as well as the general public.

 

Keeping in mind this diversity, Worldwide AI Hackathon contestants should aim to understand their audience and tailor their presentations to their interests and level of knowledge. 

 

 

As stated by TED speaker and communication expert, Nancy Duarte in her book slide:ology: The Art and Science of Creating Great Presentations "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication", Worldwide AI Hackathon encourages participants to explain their ideas in simple language, avoiding the use of jargon and technical terms that may not be familiar to the audience. When you’re preparing your presentation, make sure to run it by friends or family members who do not work in the field of AI and jot down the complicated phrases so you can explain them further in the actual presentation instead of glossing over them.

 

The mentors of the Worldwide AI Hackathon will also help contestants make their presentations comprehensible, simple, and easy to follow so you and your team will not have to deal with the stress of carrying out a killer presentation alone. 

 

 

While it’s important to pay attention to the visuals of your presentation, make sure to not focus too much on it and forget the most important part: your results. Remember to point out the problem your product solves, and how it works, and make it easier for the audience to see how it affects their life. Use visual aids to help highlight your outcomes and you’re guaranteed to leave a great impression.

 

 

People say practice makes perfect, but let’s not aim for perfection here since that’d be too much pressure on an already intense hackathon. Instead, we advise that you should practice until you’re confident enough to give a clear presentation that delivers all your key messages, which include practicing within your team or in front of your friends and family, recording yourself on tape, and watching it again to make adjustments.

 

Keep in mind that Worldwide AI Hackathon mentors will be your constant companion who will help your team practice and improve your presentation skills. We also make sure you’ll receive active responses from the judges whenever you have any concerns or questions to make you more confident in your presentations.

 

 

Along the process, Worldwide AI Hackathon will offer contestants workshops and Q&A sessions with judges and mentors where you can have your burning questions answered. This is a great opportunity for you to understand what your judges are looking for in your presentation so do not miss out!

 

Winning Worldwide AI Hackathon takes practice, preparation, and much dedication. By understanding your audience, keeping it simple, showcasing your results, practicing, and being prepared for questions, you can increase your chances of success. With these tips in mind, you are well on your way to the championship.
