Enter the Hilariously Bad Slide Competition at Geek Festival 2026

The renowned Supporterz, Inc. based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has opened registrations for a unique segment of the _Geek Festival 2026 - Autumn_. This event marks the inception of the “Hilariously Bad Slide Competition”, aimed at uniting student engineers nationwide to embrace their creativity and sense of humor by deliberately crafting unconventionally bad slides.

What is the Bad Slide Competition?

As part of the largest tech conference for students in Japan, the Geek Festival 2026, this competition focuses not only on technical acumen but also encourages participants to enhance their presentation skills and expressive capabilities. This year, the theme is purposefully paradoxical: it challenges participants to create the most absurdly “bad” slides while still effectively communicating their ideas.

Students pursuing a career in engineering will find this platform not only a fun way to express their inner creativity but also a rare opportunity to stand on stage alongside prominent influencers such as Lambda Tech Club. This initiative adds a playful twist to the serious pursuit of engineering, exploring how unconventional thinking can lead to innovative solutions and rich ideas.

Background of Geek Festival and its Vision

The Geek Festival is a prominent event under the Geek Education Project, which is an inclusive program to nurture engineering careers among students of all academic years, focusing on instilling a sense of ownership through engaging activities.

With over 150 events like study sessions and hackathons each year, the project has successfully guided more than 55,000 students, resulting in over 2,000 unique projects that emphasize real-world applications of engineering skills. By developing a mix of input and output, it ensures students become well-equipped with essential skills that can be applied effectively in real-life scenarios.

Event Overview and Participation

Participants in the Hilariously Bad Slide Competition will select one of three official templates provided and craft a presentation that showcases their vision of the “worst” slide to represent the Geek Festival. The competition runs from August 20 to September 11, 2026. It is open to all students contemplating a career as IT engineers, regardless of their academic standing.
