Why three minutes

Because clarity is a research skill. If you can make your thesis matter to a general audience in 180 seconds, every grant application, conference talk, and job interview afterward gets easier.

The current competition

The live cycle — dates, eligibility, and registration — is announced here and in the news section each season. Winners receive a prize, coaching, and a spotlight at the Futures Leaders Summit.
