Frequently Asked Questions About
New Speakers

Fees vary by topic and profile. Soft-topic speakers covering wellbeing or resilience start from £3,000; corporate-profile speakers in AI, leadership, or entrepreneurship start from £5,000. Top-tier new voices reach £50,000, with celebrity speakers running 2–3 times above that. Most corporate bookings for newer names sit between £5,000 and £25,000. For a full breakdown of what drives fee differences, see our guide to how much a keynote speaker costs in the UK.

Book 3 to 6 months ahead wherever possible. Speakers with growing profiles fill their diaries faster than organisers expect once momentum builds — a speaker who is broadly available in January may be fully committed by March. For bookings inside 6 weeks, Speaker Agency's last-minute network can surface available talent quickly, provided your format and brief are confirmed at the point of enquiry.

A keynote runs 45 to 60 minutes and is a narrative-led, one-to-many format designed to shift perspective across the full room. A workshop runs 2 to 4 hours and is participative, skills-focused, and structurally different in preparation and delivery. A speaker well-suited to one format is not automatically suited to the other. Speaker Agency confirms format fit as part of the initial curation brief before any shortlist is presented.

Yes — speakers with genuine operational backgrounds adapt naturally to sector-specific vocabulary and audience concerns. A pre-event briefing scheduled 2 to 3 weeks before the engagement gives the speaker time to calibrate examples, data references, and tone to your audience. Speaker Agency facilitates this briefing as standard for every booking, regardless of the speaker's profile or experience level.

Yes. Most speakers on the roster are equipped for virtual and hybrid delivery, covering platform setup and technical rehearsal ahead of the session. Confirm AV requirements, platform choice, and run-of-show at the point of booking. Speaker Agency coordinates technical logistics directly so that format does not become a late-stage variable in your planning.

Standard scope covers the keynote or workshop delivery, a pre-event briefing, travel within the agreed geography, and a post-event Q&A. Optional additions include a bespoke written summary for delegate packs, a follow-up webinar session, and workshop facilitation extensions. All scope items are confirmed in the booking agreement before any payment is processed, so there are no surprises on the day.

Speaker Agency's curation process starts with operational evidence: career history, published work, verifiable results, and reference calls where appropriate. A polished social presence is a signal, not a credential. Every speaker on the 300+ UK roster has been assessed against specific expertise criteria before being listed. The advisory brief you provide determines which credentialled voices are surfaced for your shortlist — not platform follower counts.
