Hi pals!

As anyone who’s attended a CreativeMornings event knows, after the main speaker we have Community Minutes - an opportunity for anyone in our community to get up and briefly address everyone else.

We regularly have folk come up and tell the audience about new projects and campaigns, job vacancies and upcoming events, but you could use a Community Minute to highlight your newest product, a crowd-funding push, even social issues you feel strongly about, or just to let everyone know about a recent achievement you want to shout about!

Anyone attending the event can take a Community Minute slot - they get 60 seconds to make their announcement, with a slide of their choice up on the big screen. CMEdi also posts the details of the all the announcements from Community Minutes on our social media accounts.

Time at the event is limited, so we do allocate all Community Minute slots beforehand. We only have a limited number, but we will do our best to allocate on a first-come first-served basis.

If you’d like a Minute at our next event please let us know - email edinburgh@creativemornings, mentioning ‘Community Minutes’ in the subject line. We can’t accept applications less than 48 hours before the event (typically our events are on a Friday morning, so we would need to hear from you by the Wednesday before).

You’ll need to provide:

- Basic details of your announcement

- A widescreen slide image (PNG, PDF or Keynote) that can be displayed on the screen during your minute

- Contact details (including social media handles) we can share with the community.

You will also need to be able to attend the event in person!

Once we’ve received your email, we will be in touch in to let you know if you have a Community Minute slot, and give any further details.
