Second Rounds - Strategies?

I have a few second rounds coming up. Never done any of these, but will have plenty to do in the next week or two. Any helpful advice on how not to get ding out? My first and most important second round is coming up very soon. Should I focus on my strong technical skills during an interview (if the opportunity comes up) or focus on the firm's culture, etc. Strategies anyone?
