Keynote speakers based in the Australian Capital Territory bring expertise in leadership, government, technology, sport and resilience to events across Canberra and the surrounding region. Booking a speaker who lives locally can reduce travel time and costs and make it easier to fit them into your program. From public sector conferences and national association events to leadership programs and awards nights, our Canberra speakers and MCs give audiences ideas they can put into practice. Our ACT-based speakers include Professor Genevieve Bell AO, Major General Paul Symon AO (Retd), Kate Carnell AO, Robert de Castella AO MBE, Petria Thomas, Michael Milton OAM, Tom Connell and Kate Munari.
Star the speakers you like above and they'll be added to your brief, or just tell us about your event. Our consultants will return a curated shortlist within one business day.
Choosing the right speaker starts with what you want your event to achieve. Are you planning a public sector conference, a national association event or a leadership program in Canberra? A clear goal helps us recommend speakers and MCs whose expertise and style suit your audience.
Consider location as well as fit. A Canberra-based speaker can make it easier to manage travel, meet for a briefing before the event or present at a breakfast and an evening session on the same day. For some events the right person will be based interstate or overseas, and we arrange travel and logistics for any speaker on our roster.
Look for a speaker who connects with your audience’s world. For government audiences, that often means someone who understands policy, public service and the pace of change in the sector.
We coordinate the briefing process, giving your speaker an understanding of your organisation, your audience and the outcomes you want to achieve.
