Rule 4. NO PITCHES

We don't have many rules for Bettakultcha. Here they are just as a reminder
  1. 20 Slides
  2. 15 seconds each
  3. 5 minutes only
  4. No pitches
Rule number 4 is close to our heart. We put together Bettakultcha to be different to other presentation events where the audience is being sold to. So we decided well before the very first Bettakultcha that we would not allow pitches.

We're a very liberal team at Bettakultcha which is why there are only the 4 rules. Lately we feel the 4th rule has been violated so...

Anyone deemed to be pitching their commercial business in a Bettakultcha presentation will be BANNED from presenting at any future Bettakultcha events (including the Random Challenge) and any video recording we make of the presentation will be considered blasphemy and therefore ineligible for inclusion in the video archive. If in any doubt, speak to us first.

Hey they're our rules, but they're there to ensure everyone has a great night.

P.S. Thanks to everyone who came on November 2nd, we hope you had an amazing time

Nigel Vardy at Bettakultcha

Nigel Vardy was our last official speaker at Bettakultcha 4. His tales of mountain climbing sans fingers, toes and nose will inspire and put the fear of god in you! Amazing talk from Nigel.

Bettakultcha V

Myself and Ivor went to see the Left Bank again today to ask questions and check out the venue in the day time. Got to say it looks stunning and has so many possibilities. For Bettakultcha V we've also managed to arrange for Andrew Critchett and his 'Fish &' team to provide the food, really looking forward to being able to post the menu very soon.

For anyone who's already tried his amazing Fish & Chips with a twist you'll know you're in for a treat, for those who haven't make sure you get your tickets. Andrew mentioned he make come up with a few little twists you've not seen before.

I took some pictures of the Left Bank today, just to show how great the venue is.
