Weiter geht mit dem nächsten Thema.
Missing the apostrophe; the correct spoken form is the contraction ‘geht’s’ (geht es).
Weiter geht es mit dem nächsten Thema.
The order is ‘geht’s mit’, not ‘geht es mit’. The verb must precede the preposition.
Weiter geht's zu dem nächsten Thema.
‘Zu’ is the wrong preposition here; you need ‘mit’ to introduce the next element.

Cultural Tip
German speakers love clear signposts in a talk. ‘Weiter geht's mit…’ is a neat, concise way to keep the flow without sounding overly formal. In northern Germany the contraction ‘geht’s’ is very common, while in some southern dialects you might hear the full form ‘geht es’ more often. The ellipsis is not spoken; you simply pause and insert the next item.
