Depending on how many people you expect, clean up and prepare a big room. We used a table for the presenter to stand on and an amplifier and microphone so mumblers and quiet-talkers could be heard. I put a ladder next to the table to prevent anyone falling while getting on or off.

If you expect more people than can comfortably look at a laptop screen, beg, borrow, or steal a video projector.

If you can, prepare a gong or some other obnoxious way to let presenters know they've started to bore the audience. Yelling "Gong! Gong!" also works.

Optional: Setup a table for people to give away free stuff.
