1. **Celebrate your achievements**: You've worked hard over the module, and this is a chance to show off what you've learned and built.
1. **Explain your work to others**: You need to be able to discuss your work fluently. This project will be the key part of your portfolio, so you need to be able to talk about it confidently in interviews.
1. **Make people want to hire you**: There will be potential hiring managers watching your demo. Ideally at the end of your demo, they will want to talk to you and hire you.
1. **Get feedback**: You'll get feedback from your peers, mentors and other guests. This feedback will help you improve your project and your presentation skills for the real challenge: job interviews.

On the demo day the Launch Module teams will present their products. Each team has 10 minutes to present. You must ensure that you can present within the allocated time.
_Suggestion of split: 7 minutes for the presentation itself and 3 minutes for questions._
On the demo day the Launch Module teams will present their products.

Each team has 15 minutes to present. You must ensure that you can present within the allocated time. After your demo, you will have 5-10 minutes for questions from the audience.

Each demo should include at least:
* An introduction to the problem being solved
* A description of how you solved the problem
* A visual demonstration of what you built
* Some information about how you built the project
* Some information about how you worked together

Use our [presenting guide](/guides/presenting/) to understand what you should consider when building your demo.

### Demo

- Have a script for the demo and practice it! You should be able to talk without thinking too much about it
- Use one laptop for your whole demo. Do not switch laptops during your demo.
- Practice switching between demo and slides so that you don't waste too much time on it
- Use tabs to pre-fill forms - we don't need to see you type out stuff, especially if you don't explain it
- Use Incognito mode to prevent logging into/out. With incognito mode, you can be logged into multiple accounts at once
