RTP180 is a lively speaker series that takes place quarterly.
Each event explores a new topic from the perspectives of the brightest minds and best storytellers from the Triangle region. We love seeing where our speakers (and audience) take things each month. Plus, special pop-up programming before the show starts!
RTP180 is presented by RTI International.

How does it work?
The most unique thing about RTP180 is the format. Each speaker shares about the topic for five minutes and then transitions to five minutes of Q&A. The audience get the quick and dirty, and then have your chance to learn more about what interests you. Before speakers take center stage, attendees can enjoy complimentary drinks, snacks and rotating pop-ups that are out-of-the-box, engaging and unique to the topic.
Here's what you can expect at each show:
- 5:00 pm: Doors open for beer, wine, snacks and a pop-up with a twist.
- 6:00 pm: The show begins!
- 7:00 ish: The show ends and the bar opens back up.
- 7:45 pm: Everybody goes home!
The event will be live streamed on PBS-NC beginning at 6:00 p.m. the day of the event. Watch the live stream on the PBS website.
