Issac - personally, I don't adhere to any 'typical' keynote presentation. Unless the conference organisers specifically state an exact content and time etc - then the keynote is an open invitation to showcase that keynotes standing and expertise related to the conference themes. Tht can range from a personal and anecdotal account of ones life story and journey to date (usually the most interesting and humorous) - through to a specific account of recent/current research projects.
I agree with Dean Whitehead sir
Future prospects and projections are to be included in the end
Dear Isaac Odun-Ayo in most international conferences keynote lectures are the highlights of the meeting. They are normally presented by established and excellent scientists who are well known for their achievements in their respective field of research. As pointed out by Dean Whitehead these lectures often comprise the life story of the researcher and are of broader interest than specialist talks. I would see keynote lectures as "spoken review articles". They are normally scheduled for 45 or even 60 minutes. For example, the title of a keynote lecture which I presented recently is "My 40-year organometallic journey through the Periodic Table with frequent stops at the rare-earth elements". Our work is summarized in the word cloud cited below.
Presentation Representation of our research 1980–2020
Overall, keynote should be concise, brief, informative, and address main theme-topic of a conference.
Dean Whitehead thank you!
