About 15x4
A global movement making knowledge accessible through short, engaging talks.
The Format
How It Works
Speakers
Each event features four speakers who are passionate about their topic. No academic credentials required -- just enthusiasm and curiosity.
Minutes
Each talk is exactly 15 minutes. This constraint forces speakers to distill complex ideas into clear, engaging presentations.
Cost
All events are completely free. Knowledge should be accessible to everyone, with no barriers to entry.
Topics
From quantum physics to cooking, from history to AI. Any topic is welcome as long as the speaker is passionate about it.
Since 2017
Our Story
15x4 started as a grassroots science communication initiative and has grown into a global network with chapters in multiple countries.
The Munich chapter was founded in 2017 by a group of science enthusiasts who wanted to bring this format to the city. After hosting many events and building a wonderful community, we are now being revived in 2026 with fresh energy and new ideas.
Our mission remains the same: make knowledge sharing fun, accessible, and community-driven.
