I have doubts that AE can be 'user modified' as a presentation software. That was not its intended target application...as everything is geared towards rendering for output.
Since you are Windows-based like I, check out -
1.
AvStumpfl's Wings Platinum - probably one of the simpler versions rather than the top end Multidisplay version. Differences and features are listed in a table in the Demo's Help Files under 'Versions'. Note that it is USB-dongled software and can make use of dual-screens if your graphics card has dual outputs (eg. Controls on one monitor, full-screen presentation to projector/large monitor on the other output). It's at version 3.70 presently with v4.0 about to be released.
or,
2.
Presentation Manager. Though designed as worship presentation software, there seems to be quite a number of features one could use for business presentations. Demo is available.
