All projects must follow the official PowerPoint (PPT) template and are permitted to add additional slides within each category.

All work submitted to SIPI should be in English.

Each Team should only submit once

Here are some suggestions:

Understand the Template Structure:

Review each slide of the template carefully before beginning your edits.

Understand the purpose and intended content of each slide.

Content Planning:

Plan the content you need to introduce for each category based on your project.

Determine the titles, key points, charts, and analyses for each section.

Adhere to Design Guidelines:

Even when adding slides, maintain consistency with the overall design, including fonts, color schemes, and layout.

Charts and Visualizations:

You are welcome to use charts, images, and other visualization tools to enhance the communication of information.

Ensure that these elements follow the template's design guidelines.

Quality over Quantity:

Focus on the quality of content rather than the number of slides.

Each slide should add value and not overcrowd the presentation with unnecessary information.

Remember, the goal of using an official template and adding slides is to create a presentation that is both informative and visually consistent with the purpose of your project.
