Every year, OMG features a keynote address from an invited guest speaker. Watch this space – we will be announcing our 2025 keynote speaker soon!
Open Mic Maths is essentially the “Hello, my name is…'' sticker for OMG. A lightning, 5 minute informal talk: it’s your chance to share a mathematical idea or insight you’d like to have a deeper discussion about, a funny (maths) thing you noticed, or a particularly juicy problem to be explored.
Anything goes, from maths-of-juggling demonstrations to statistics presentations (or maybe even both at the same time), but you’ve only got five minutes!
Breakout is the next step after Open Mic Maths. The “meet and greet.” You’ve introduced your topic, now you get to discuss with other interested attendees / workshop / further develop the idea.
We will have a whiteboard and projector screen for presenting. Please bring any powerpoint presentation on a USB drive, or bring a device with HDMI port / adaptor.
Alternatively, you can send your presentation to the organisers at info@mathsjam.nz as an email attachment, but this must arrive by Friday 24th October.
