Is this a Keynote or a breakout topic?
*
This field is required.
Most people usually quickly say keynote. But let's be very honest. We like to choose our keynotes. Sometimes, we reach out to folks we want to deliver our keynotes. Still, you can do a keynote. But it's important to know the difference.
Keynotes is delivering information at a higher level of abstraction, with less nitty-gritty specifics. Sure, it can involve specific explanations, examples, applications for your audience, and a call to action. But keynotes normally inspire, inform, entertain, and give hope of some change. ‘How technology Can Change Africa’s e-commerce Landscape’ is a great keynote.
Breakouts are different. Here, the topic goes deeper with your content and deliver it at a lower level of abstraction. “How to secure your website using Sucuri”, is a great breakout. So, is your topic Keynote or Breakout?
