About Speakers Corner

Who are we and how do we work with event organisers like you?



Speakers Corner is the UK's leading speaker bureau and a proud B Corp certified business. We believe great business should create a positive impact, whether that's for our clients, our speakers, our team or the wider events industry. That belief shapes how we work every day.

For over 20 years, we've supported more than 3,000 events each year. We help organisations bring ideas to life in ways that inform, challenge and inspire. Our network spans 12,000+ speakers across 50+ countries, and we work with organisations of all shapes and sizes, from global conferences to leadership workshops, awards evenings to boardroom roundtables. We’re grateful to have fantastic clients including Google, Deloitte, PwC, Microsoft, Mastercard and Unilever, alongside event agencies, PR companies and leading associations and public sector bodies around the world.

What really sets us apart is our impartial approach. There's no house favourite and no reason to steer you towards one. Instead, we focus on finding the right voice for your audience, your goals and your moment. Sometimes that's a household name. Sometimes it's an emerging expert with just the right story to tell. Whatever the brief, our advice is guided by what will work best for your event, not what suits us.

We take the time to listen, ask the right questions and find out what success looks like for you. Every booking is a partnership, built on trust, insight and long term relationships rather than quick wins. And yes, we listen to speakers for a living. It means we know what resonates and what connects. It also means knowing what turns a good event into one people are still talking about months later. From the first chat to the final round of applause, our team combines deep expertise with a friendly, supportive approach. That makes the whole process feel easy.

It's also why so many of our clients come back to us year after year. Good events change how a room thinks, even if only for an evening. Helping make that happen, again and again, is what we're here for.

Here's How We Work

Speaker booking for any kind of speaker, for your in-person or virtual event

The Speakers Corner Story


Speakers Corner runs on passion (and, if we’re honest, coffee). We care deeply about what we do — inspiring people to achieve more through storytelling and speaking.

Since our MD Nick Gold joined Speakers Corner in 2004, we’ve gone from a fledgling bureau to an international events powerhouse. Nick’s brother Tim joined as director three years later, and the rest is history. Now, we’ve got more than 9000 speakers on our books, and we’re trusted by more than 3,000 clients every year with both in-person and virtual events.

With more than 40 years of creating unforgettable event experiences behind us, we stop at nothing to find, book, and facilitate the perfect speaker for your event.

Our Vision and Values

We’re different from other speaker bureaus. While we have some of the most sought-after celebrity speakers on our books, we’re under no obligation to any of them. That means we’re free to put your vision first. And it’s why our values are so important to us:

Creative
Our enterprising and dedicated team constantly seeks ways to make your event memorable
Impartial
We don’t represent any speakers exclusively, so we’re free to choose the best person for the job
Supportive
Speaker booking is never one-and-done; we’ll support you from sourcing a speaker to the event end
Responsive
Communication is at the heart of everything that we do, so we’re on hand to help 24/7


We never push our own agenda, or that of our speakers. Instead, we focus on what you want to say, and match you with a speaker who can deliver a pitch-perfect message.


We’re B Corp Certified

In 2023, we became a proud B Corp Certified business—a milestone that reflects our commitment to using business as a force for good.

B Corp Certification is a rigorous process that measures how we operate across key areas, including social responsibility, environmental impact, transparency, and governance. It holds us to the highest standards—and that’s exactly where we believe we should be.

Joining the global B Corp community is a natural step for us. Integrity and impact have always guided how we treat our team, support our clients and speakers, and contribute to the wider world.

We’re proud of this achievement, but we see it as just the beginning. Our B Corp journey is ongoing, and we’re constantly looking for ways to improve, evolve, and deepen our commitment to positive change.

Who We Work With

We work with clients across every sector—from global brands and innovative start-ups to public sector organisations, charities, and creative agencies. Whether it's a leadership summit, internal training, company away day or major industry conference, we help you find the right speaker to engage your audience and elevate your event.

Our experience spans various industries, including finance, technology, healthcare, retail, media and education. We understand the unique goals and challenges different audiences bring—and how the right speaker can make all the difference. We're also trusted partners to production teams and agencies who rely on us to bring their event concepts to life with energy, credibility, and impact.

No matter the brief, our aim is always the same: to connect our clients with speakers who deliver lasting value and leave audiences inspired.
