Technical needs for the venue

Please let me know if this causes any trouble.
The talk is based on the Life X project
Jes and Storm, a neuroscientist and a production manager, quit their jobs and sailed around the world to meet people and investigate the science behind a good life. All at a speed of 10 km/h. The project was funded by the Lundbeck Foundation in Denmark.
