Elevator Pitch: a short summary used to quickly and simply define a person, profession, product, service, organization or event and its value proposition
approximately thirty seconds to two minutes
The 3 minute thesis is an example of this.

The goal of lightning talks are to demonstrate a topic in a quick and insightful manner. The main point of a lightning talk is the delivery of the presentation, not necessarily the content in it. The significance of these concise and efficient talks is to grab audiences attention. The short presentations are also important because they allow people to understand mass amounts of information in such a short amount of time
At university….
A Lightning Talks event features up to 10 theme-based presentations (each under 5 minutes) from graduate students, followed by a Q+A panel discussion. Audience and presenters are invited to enjoy snacks and refreshments.  (Simon Fraser University)

18. Ignite’s motto, ‘enlighten us, but make it quick,’ is the perfect balance of form and function. Ignite speakers get five minutes and 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds. Speaking at a just-comprehensible clip of 160 words a minute, you get about 40 words per slide for a total of 800 words.
