Some points to follow to get the most out of these gatherings 

Pick a topic that you find interesting or are excited about - it does not need to be related to your professional work.

Allow time for questions and post-presentation discussion

Provide a way for folks to reach out in case they want to learn more.

If there seems to be enough interest around a topic, there is opportunity for a more participatory version of this model.
