The Speakers Agency, The Future of Humanity Speakers present a new vision with speeches covering every aspect of humanity, future and more.

Fees start at £5,000 for corporate-topic speakers, with top-tier speakers — those carrying major institutional credibility, published science profiles, or significant media presence — reaching £50,000. Celebrity-level speakers run 2–3 times that figure. Most corporate bookings fall between £5,000 and £25,000. For a full breakdown of what drives fee variation across speaker tiers, see the guidance on keynote speaker fees in the UK.
For institute directors, published scientists, and speakers with active policy or media commitments, 3–6 months is the working standard. Flagship conference keynotes or summit sessions benefit from 6–12 months' lead time to secure first-choice availability. Bookings under 6 weeks are possible through the wider network of 1,190+ global speakers but carry real availability risk — this topic draws speakers with academic calendars and policy scheduling that compress short-notice windows significantly.
A 45–60 minute keynote frames civilisational-scale questions and leaves the audience with a shifted perspective and a focused set of strategic provocations — it is not designed to resolve complexity within the session. A 2–4 hour workshop applies scenario-planning or decision-framework tools to convert those same questions into concrete institutional choices. The two formats demand different preparation and different speaker strengths; not every strong keynote speaker is equally effective in a workshop room, and the output expected should be confirmed before booking.
Yes, and for this topic category, sector tailoring is particularly important. A longevity-science session for a pharma company's R&D day requires substantially different framing than an AI safety session for a financial services risk committee. Speakers work from a pre-event briefing document provided 2–3 weeks before the session, covering audience profile, strategic context, and the precise sub-angle — whether that is AI governance, longevity economics, technology ethics, or climate tipping points.
Yes; the majority of speakers on this topic have extensive experience across virtual and hybrid formats, including academic lecture environments and policy briefing settings. Technical set-up, pre-session rehearsal, and audience interaction design are all included in the booking coordination process. Speaker Agency manages the format logistics as a standard part of the engagement, so the event organiser is not handling technical variables independently.
Standard scope covers speaker preparation, pre-event briefing coordination, travel and logistics management, the keynote or session itself, and post-event follow-up contact. Optional additions include extended Q&A facilitation, panel participation, post-session advisory resources for ongoing strategic conversations, and media availability. Speaker Agency acts as the single point of contact throughout, managing the full coordination so the organiser is not juggling speaker, travel, and briefing processes separately.
A speaker whose material is 18 months out of date will lose a technically literate room on this topic. Speaker Agency's roster prioritises active researchers, institute directors, and corporate practitioners who are producing or directly responding to current science and policy — not speakers recycling a fixed talk. Before any recommendation, we confirm currency of material, recent delivery history, and whether the speaker is actively engaged with the latest developments in their specific sub-angle, whether that is AI safety evaluations, longevity biology, or technology ethics.
