Human Expertise vs. Algorithms: Why a Speaker Agency Beats AI for Booking Keynote Speakers

In an era where AI search agents can generate recommendations in milliseconds, booking a keynote speaker might seem as simple as typing a prompt into a chat box.

AI Query Prompt

“Find me an engaging technology keynote speaker for 500 executives in Paris on a €15,000 budget.”

Within seconds, AI will return a polished list of names, bios, and links. It feels efficient. But when your event’s stakes are high—when your brand’s reputation, audience engagement, and ROI are on the line—relying solely on an algorithm introduces hidden risks.

While AI is an exceptional tool for surface-level research, an established speaker agency offers strategic value, human judgment, and risk mitigation that no code can replicate. Here is why partnering with an experienced speaker bureau remains the smartest investment for your event.

Strategic Matchmaking

1. Curated Matchmaking Beyond Keyword Matching

AI agents operate on data scraping and keyword matching. They evaluate what a speaker says they do based on online text, SEO, and social presence. AI cannot evaluate nuance, tone, or cultural fit.

An agency evaluates key human elements:

Audience temperament: Will this executive team respond better to tough love or inspirational storytelling?
Real-time dynamics: Has this speaker recently refreshed their material, or are they relying on older slides?
Event objective: Aligning content specifically for corporate restructures vs. annual growth conferences.

Quality Assurance

2. Verified Vetting vs. Algorithmic Hallucinations

AI search models are notorious for pulling outdated information, hallucinating credentials, or recommending speakers who are no longer active, out of budget, or bound by exclusivity contracts.

Up-to-date pricing and availability: Zero wasted time reaching out to unavailable options.
On-stage reality: Video reels highlight the best 60 seconds; agencies know how a speaker performs over a full 60-minute keynote.
Reputation check: Direct knowledge of who shows up prepared and delivers on custom requests.

3. Customisation & Alignment

Great events require tailored keynotes. Agencies run detailed pre-event briefing calls to ensure the speaker aligns with company culture, terminology, and sensitive-topic guidelines.

4. Crisis Management

If a flight gets cancelled four hours before the opening session, AI leaves you stranded. An agency provides immediate, high-calibre replacement protocols to save your event.

5. Seamless Contract & Logistics Management

Booking involves negotiating complex contracts, navigating rider requirements (A/V specifications, travel logistics), and handling transactions securely.

Agencies handle the entire administrative load, ensuring legally tested protection and clear rider execution.

AI as a Tool, Agencies as Partners

AI is a fantastic resource for initial brainstorming, but event success is measured by the impact left on your audience. An agency brings the context, accountability, and peace of mind no code can replace.

Elevating International Forums: Introducing the PSpeakers Congress Secretariat

PSpeakers Global Intelligence Congress Speaker Secretariat and Content Management

Elevating International Forums

Intelligence Announcement | May 2026

As the landscape of international congresses and government forums becomes increasingly complex, the demand for more than just "talent booking" has reached a critical turning point.

Today, the success of a global event is measured not just by who is on stage, but by the strategic alignment of content and the long-term intelligence gathered from every session. In response to this evolution, PSpeakers Global Intelligence is proud to formally announce the launch of our Congress Speaker Secretariat.

Beyond Booking: A Strategic Partnership

The traditional model of speaker sourcing is often fragmented. Recognising the operational risks this creates for high-stakes gatherings, our Secretariat serves as a dedicated, end-to-end department for our clients.

The Three Strategic Pillars

●

Comprehensive Speaker Management: From personalised invitations to stage-side readiness and technical rehearsals.

●

Content Intelligence: We bridge the gap between speaker expertise and event themes through strategic session briefs.

●

Post-Event Analytics: Structured reporting and confidential intelligence for future strategic planning.

Supporting the 2026/27 Global Calendar

Whether it is a specialised government forum in the Gulf or a large-scale international trade fair in Europe or LatAm, our methodology prioritises operational security and thematic clarity.

The Evolution of Leadership: Introducing PSpeakers Global Intelligence

For years, PSpeakers has been a trusted partner for organisations seeking world-class voices for their most important events. We have connected global boards, executive teams, and industry leaders with the minds shaping our world.

But as the global business landscape has evolved, so have the needs of our clients.

Today, corporate leaders are navigating unprecedented volatility. From the rapid acceleration of artificial intelligence and shifting geopolitical powerlines to the urgent demands of ESG and complex market disruptions, the stakes have never been higher. In this era of extreme uncertainty, a standard “motivational keynote” is no longer enough. Executive boards do not just need inspiration; they require actionable foresight, data-driven frameworks, and hard-earned intelligence.

To meet this critical demand, we are proud to announce our official evolution into PSpeakers Global Intelligence.

Why We Made the Shift: From Inspiration to Implementation

We realised that our most successful corporate placements were no longer just about putting a famous face on a stage. They were about injecting deep, domain-specific expertise directly into the veins of an organisation to solve complex problems.

Our clients—ranging from Fortune 500 companies to global regulatory bodies—are seeking Strategic Authorities: individuals who have led nations, engineered historic corporate turnarounds, survived extreme adversity, and pioneered groundbreaking technologies.

PSpeakers Global Intelligence is built on a new foundational promise: we don’t just provide speakers; we provide the strategic outcomes your organisation needs to outmanoeuvre rivals, future-proof operations, and build cohesive, elite teams.

The Six Intelligence Domains

To seamlessly align our global roster with your corporate objectives, we have completely restructured our advisory model around Six Core Intelligence Domains. These pillars represent the macro-forces shaping global strategy, leadership, and performance today:

Global Strategy, Economics & Geopolitics
The Promise: Master the macro-forces defining the next decade of global business. We bridge the gap between complex global data and actionable foresight, enabling leaders to anticipate market shifts, decipher geopolitical risks, and make bold, fact-based investment moves.
Intelligence, Technology & Digital Frontiers
The Promise: Lead the digital revolution through ethical and applied intelligence. From Generative AI and robotics to cybersecurity and the metaverse, our authorities translate scattered market signals into coherent digital advantages and safe implementation roadmaps.
Human Potential & Future Leadership
The Promise: Navigate complex business transformations. We equip the C-suite with the advanced change management, corporate strategy, and HR frameworks required to build agile, resilient, and deeply aligned corporate cultures.
Sustainability, Blue Economy & ESG
The Promise: Secure your competitive edge through environmental and ethical excellence. Our experts translate abstract climate goals into profitable, compliant, and sustainable business models.
Commercial Growth, Sales & Experience
The Promise: Accelerate revenue through data-driven and relational customer approaches. We bring you the architects of elite customer experience and high-performance sales strategies.
Elite Performance & Mindset
The Promise: Unlock extraordinary corporate results by adopting the psychological frameworks of world-class performers. From legendary sports coaches to radical resilience survivors, we translate extreme human endurance into boardroom execution.

Welcome to the Intelligence Hub

This evolution goes beyond our name. When you partner with PSpeakers Global Intelligence, you are gaining an advisory extension of your own team. Our new digital platform is designed to act as an Intelligence Hub, providing curated insights, strategic forecasts, and frictionless access to the world’s leading visionaries.

We invite you to explore our new Intelligence Domains and discover the Strategic Authorities who will define your next pivotal event.

The future belongs to the informed. Let’s build it together.

Perspectivas Geopolíticas 2026: Venezuela, el “Efecto Trump” y la Operación Determinación Absoluta

Por PSpeakers – Agencia Global de Consultoría e Inteligencia de Mercado

A medida que nos adentramos en 2026, el panorama geopolítico de las Américas ha sufrido una transformación radical. Lo que comenzó como una tensión diplomática prolongada ha evolucionado hacia la “Operación Determinación Absoluta” (Operation Absolute Resolve), marcando un punto de inflexión sin precedentes en la política exterior de los Estados Unidos bajo la administración Trump y redefiniendo el mapa de riesgos para toda América Latina.

El Nuevo Orden Regional

La captura del régimen de Maduro no es solo un evento político; es un terremoto económico que está obligando a las juntas directivas y a los organizadores de conferencias globales a replantearse sus estrategias de inversión en la región. El “Corolario Trump” ha dejado claro que la era de la paciencia estratégica ha terminado, siendo sustituida por una política de intervención directa y resultados inmediatos.

Para las empresas que operan en el eje Madrid-Miami-Latinoamérica, este nuevo escenario presenta tanto desafíos críticos como oportunidades de reconstrucción masiva.

Voces de Autoridad: Expertos para Entender la Nueva Era

En PSpeakers, hemos identificado a los líderes de opinión clave que están analizando estos eventos en tiempo real. Estos expertos están disponibles para sesiones estratégicas y conferencias magistrales, aportando claridad en medio de la volatilidad:

Moisés Naím: El destacado analista y exministro venezolano aporta una visión inigualable sobre el futuro de las instituciones en una Venezuela post-conflicto y el impacto del “populismo de poder” en la región.
Felipe Larraín: Exministro de Hacienda de Chile, experto en cómo los mercados de capitales latinoamericanos reaccionarán ante la estabilización de los precios del petróleo y los nuevos tratados comerciales con EE. UU.
Hernando de Soto: Su enfoque en los derechos de propiedad y la economía informal es vital para entender la reconstrucción económica de los países que emergen de regímenes autoritarios.
Daniel Suchar Zomer: Analista financiero y experto en geopolítica, cuya capacidad para desglosar el impacto del dólar y la inflación en contextos de crisis es fundamental para los inversores actuales.

¿Por qué este análisis es crucial para su organización?

La incertidumbre ya no es una opción para los líderes empresariales. Comprender la Operación Determinación Absoluta requiere una visión que combine la inteligencia militar, la estrategia diplomática y la previsión económica.

Desde PSpeakers, nuestra misión —impulsada por la investigación constante desde 2005— es conectar a su organización con estos “arquitectos del pensamiento” que pueden predecir los próximos movimientos en este tablero de ajedrez global.

Strategy in the “Absolute Resolve” Era with Political Volatility in Venezuela

The #Geopolitics of Latin America have fundamentally shifted. With the start of 2026, the unprecedented US military operation in Venezuela and the capture of Nicolás Maduro have moved the region from a state of “monitored risk” to “active crisis management.”

For global enterprises, the “Trump Factor” is no longer a campaign talking point—it is a directive that is actively reshaping trade, energy, and security across the hemisphere. At PSpeakers, we are helping boards navigate this new, assertive era of US foreign policy.

Beyond the Raid: What Comes Next?

While the tactical success of the Caracas raid has dominated headlines, the strategic vacuum it leaves behind is the real challenge for business leaders. With the US declaring it will “run” Venezuela during a transition and Secretary of State Marco Rubio signaling a “Trump Corollary” to the Monroe Doctrine, the rules of engagement for #EmergingMarkets have changed overnight.

Energy Markets: How will the proposed US-led “fix” for Venezuela’s oil infrastructure impact global supply and your long-term energy contracts?
Regional Stability: With acting President Delcy Rodríguez taking a conciliatory tone but regional neighbours like Colombia expressing alarm, how should you re-evaluate your footprint in the Andean region?
The Global Response: As China and Russia weigh their responses to this move in their “near abroad,” what is the risk of retaliatory economic measures elsewhere?

The “Trump Factor” and US Policy Whiplash

Significant for long-term strategy is Donald Trump’s return to the US presidency.

Markets are already beginning to “price in” a dramatic pivot in US policy toward Latin America. A second Trump administration is showing a return to a hardline stance on Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, involving aggressive sanctions or even interventionist rhetoric. It could also signal a renewed focus on trade protectionism, renegotiated tariffs, and intense pressure on Mexico regarding border security.

Must companies ask: Is our business model resilient enough to withstand a sudden, 180-degree turn in Washington’s approach to the region?

The Need for Expert Foresight

In a world of #PoliticalRisk, being reactive is being late. Your leadership team needs insight from those who understand the internal mechanics of this administration and the historical precedents now being invoked.

Our #Geopolitics experts at PSpeakers include former defence strategists and regional analysts who can provide:

Scenario Modelling for the 90-day transition period in Caracas.
Policy Impact Briefings on how the “Trump Corollary” will affect Mexico and the rest of LatAm.
Risk Mitigation for assets currently caught in the crossfire of sanctions and shifting sovereignty.

Don’t manage the crisis—navigate the transition.

The Elite Roster: PSpeakers’ Geopolitical Experts

Navigating the Geopolitical Nexus: How PSpeakers is Equipping Latam Leaders for 2026 and Beyond

PSpeakers Agency, Latin America Tel +5117071599

LATAM Geopolitics: Navigating the China-USA-Europe Power Triangle

The economic fate of Latin American organisations is now intrinsically linked to the shifting sands of global power. As the competitive and cooperative dynamics between China, the USA, and Europe intensify, regional enterprises need more than market data—they need geopolitical foresight.

At PSpeakers, we recognise that operating effectively in this new era requires a strategic understanding of macro-level risks and opportunities. Our specialised roster of geopolitical experts is actively working across the continent, providing business leaders with the critical intelligence necessary to ensure stability, optimise trade, and secure future growth into 2026 and beyond.

The New Geopolitical Triad and Latam’s Position

For Latin American businesses, navigating the complex relationships between the world’s leading economies is the most significant strategic challenge. Our experts analyse the implications of this triad across three key dimensions:

China’s Deepening Influence: Our speakers provide clarity on maximising economic partnership while managing sovereignty concerns and supply chain reliance amidst China’s massive investment push.
The USA’s Strategic Priorities: Experts help leaders anticipate US policy changes and their sectoral impacts —from energy and mining to finance —mitigating volatility from a pivotal trade partner.
Europe’s Regulatory and Trade Focus: Our specialists demystify the emerging European landscape, particularly around sustainability, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) standards, which are vital for market access and reputation management.

How to Book the Perfect Keynote Speaker: A Step-by-Step Guide for Event Planners

How to book the perfect keynote speaker by PSpeakers

Choosing the right keynote speaker can make or break your event. Whether you’re organising a leadership summit, corporate conference, or industry expo, a great speaker sets the tone, energises the audience, and brings your event theme to life. But how do you book the perfect keynote speaker? Here’s a step-by-step guide from the experts at PSpeakers to help you navigate the process smoothly and successfully.

Step 1: Define Your Event Goals and Audience

Before you start browsing speaker profiles, clearly outline:

Event objectives (e.g., motivate, educate, entertain)
Audience type (e.g., C-suite, entrepreneurs, sales team)
Desired outcomes (e.g., increased engagement, behavioural change, strategic alignment)

Pro Tip: A speaker who’s brilliant at inspiring innovation might not be ideal for a highly technical audience—and vice versa.

Step 2: Choose Your Theme and Speaker Topic

Align the speaker’s content with your event’s central theme. Hot themes for 2025 include:

AI and digital transformation
Sustainability and the future of work
Leadership and inclusion
Entrepreneurial resilience

PSpeakers Insight: Our curated list of trending speaking topics ensures you stay relevant and future-focused.

Step 3: Set Your Budget and Format

Knowing your budget upfront helps narrow down your options. Costs vary depending on:

Speaker profile (celebrity vs. subject matter expert)
Location and travel requirements
Format (live, virtual, or hybrid)

Note: At PSpeakers, we work with every budget range and recommend the best speaker within your target spend.

Step 4: Shortlist and Vet Speakers

Now it’s time to find the right fit. Ask:

Have they spoken to similar audiences?
Do they offer customised presentations?
Are there video samples, testimonials, or references?

We provide speaker videos, bios, topics, and recommendations to make this step easy and risk-free.

Step 5: Confirm Availability and Logistics

Once you’ve selected your speaker, we handle the next steps:

Confirming availability
Negotiating terms
Managing travel, tech requirements, and presentation logistics

You’ll get a clear agreement, briefing call with the speaker, and our ongoing support throughout the process.

Step 6: Prepare and Promote

Collaborate with the speaker to tailor their talk to your audience. Share details like:

Event schedule
Company culture or industry context
Key messages or themes

Bonus: Promote your keynote in advance to boost attendance—our marketing team can help with content and teasers.

Final Thoughts: Partner with a Speaker Agency You Trust

Booking a keynote speaker doesn’t need to be complicated. With PSpeakers, you get:

Personalised recommendations
Full speaker management
Global speaker access
Multilingual and regional expertise

Let’s elevate your next event together. Contact PSpeakers today, and we’ll match you with the ideal keynote speaker for your 2025 event.

Our professional speakers agency has been transforming conferences since 2005 with Europe’s top conference keynote speakers. Over the last 20 years, we’ve grown beyond just promoting speakers.

We have successfully built a global network that connects event organizers with world-class, award-winning talent. PSpeakers represent this evolution. It’s clearer, simpler, and more aligned with our mission of making it effortless for organizations to find the perfect conference speakers for their audience.

We are stepping into this new phase with the same passion and dedication, only with a stronger identity that will make it even easier for clients and speakers to connect.

Understanding Non-Exclusive verses Exclusive Speaker Representation

PSpeakers 2025 a gloabl keynote speakers agency. Since 2005

Why Non-Exclusive Speaker Representation Gives You More Opportunities

As a professional speaker, securing engagements with the right audiences is essential for building your brand and growing your career. One of the key decisions you’ll face is whether to sign an exclusive contract with a speakers agency or work with agencies non-exclusively. While exclusivity may seem appealing, it often comes with significant drawbacks that limit your reach and income potential. At PSpeakers, we champion the benefits of non-exclusive representation, ensuring that speakers retain control over their careers while maximizing opportunities. Here’s why non-exclusivity is the smarter choice for most professional speakers.

The Drawbacks of Exclusive Speaker Representation

Limited Opportunities
When you sign an exclusive contract with a speakers agency, you are restricted to getting bookings only through them. If that agency doesn’t have strong connections in certain industries, regions, or event types, you may miss out on numerous speaking opportunities.
Reduced Income Potential
If an agency isn’t actively securing enough bookings for you, you could face long stretches without paid engagements. Since you’re unable to work with other agencies, you might find yourself in a financial rut with little control over fixing the situation.
Loss of Autonomy
Exclusive representation often means giving up control over how your brand is marketed. The agency dictates your pricing, positioning, and availability. If their approach doesn’t align with your personal vision, you have little say in the matter.
Risk of Agency Underperformance
Not all agencies deliver consistent results. If your exclusive agency fails to market you effectively or prioritizes other speakers over you, you’re stuck with them for the duration of the contract. Breaking an exclusivity agreement can be legally complex and financially draining.
Fewer Collaborations & Networking Opportunities
Many top speakers collaborate with multiple agencies to access different markets and event organizers. Exclusivity can cut you off from important networking opportunities and reduce your exposure to diverse speaking engagements.

The Advantages of Non-Exclusive Speaker Representation

At PSpeakers, we believe in empowering speakers by allowing them to work with multiple agencies and book engagements independently. Here’s how non-exclusive representation benefits you:

Access to a Wider Pool of Opportunities
By working with multiple agencies and direct clients, you maximize your chances of securing speaking engagements across various industries and regions.
Greater Control Over Your Career
You set your own rates, decide which events align with your brand, and negotiate directly when needed. This autonomy allows you to shape your career the way you want.
More Flexibility and Freedom
With non-exclusive representation, you’re free to explore direct speaking opportunities and leverage personal connections without any contractual restrictions.
Diversified Income Streams
Since you’re not relying on a single agency, your income potential isn’t tied to one company’s ability to book you. This diversification reduces financial risk.
Better Industry Visibility
The more agencies promoting you, the higher your chances of landing high-profile speaking engagements. Non-exclusive speakers often gain more recognition because they appear in multiple agency rosters and event listings.
Support for Direct Approaches
Some agencies, like PSpeakers, even when working on a non-exclusive basis, will be happy to manage their speakers’ direct approaches if they have a good relationship with their agent. This allows speakers to maintain a structured approach to bookings while benefiting from their agency’s expertise in negotiations and logistics.

Conclusion: Take Control of Your Speaking Career

While exclusivity may seem like a way to simplify speaker representation, it often does more harm than good by limiting opportunities, income, and career flexibility. Non-exclusive representation, as offered by PSpeakers, ensures that speakers remain in control of their careers while accessing a broader range of speaking engagements.

If you’re looking for a dynamic, non-restrictive approach to speaker representation, PSpeakers is here to support you. Contact us today to explore how we can help you grow your speaking career on your terms.

Interested in taking your speaking career to the next level? Connect with PSpeakers today and start securing more opportunities, more freedom, and more success.

PSpeakers is geographically located across Europe and Latin America, where it has offices, but with a global capability representing speakers including former country leaders, Nobel Prize winners, award-winning CEOs, Olympians, sustainability experts, and AI experts with real-world experience.

International Events Featuring Promotivate’s Leading Keynote Speakers on Sustainability in 2025

Blue Zone Sustainability Forum, Cadiz Spain

International Events Featuring Promotivate’s Leading Keynote Speakers on Sustainability in 2025

November 26th, 2024, was World Sustainable Transport Day. In November 2024, Promotivate provided leading international keynote speakers on sustainability for major initiatives. It was regarding the sustainable development of the oceans and transport systems at regional and state levels in Spain, Portugal, and Mexico. The sustainable development of ocean and transport systems is crucial for balancing economic growth, environmental health, and social equity.

AMT World Sustainable Transport Day Lisbon 2024

Blue Economy Potential:

The Global ‘Blue Economy’ consisting of fisheries, tourism, renewable energy, and marine transport is valued trillions annually. It heavily depends on healthy oceans.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions:

The transport sector is responsible for about 25% of C02 emissions. Shifting to low-carbon solutions like electric vehicles and hydrogen-powered ships is essential.

Oceans Absorb Carbon:

Oceans absorb about 30% of global CO2 emissions and produce over 50% of the oxygen we breathe, making their health critical in combating climate change.

Public Transit:

Investing in sustainable public transport systems, like electric buses and light rail, can reduce urban emissions and traffic congestion.

Ocean Plastics:

By 2050, there could be more plastic than fish in the ocean if current pollution rates persist. Solutions like biodegradable materials and plastic bans are critical.

Which Topics And Keynote Speakers Do Promotivate Rate Highly In 2023?

Dietmar Dahmen keynote speaker World Branding Awards, Vienna

We Travel With Our Speakers To Many Events To Find Out

We as a long-established speakers agency have seen a positive return of activity in the global conference market. We’ve travelled across Europe to several fantastic conferences to see our speakers in action and meet with our clients. With our speakers also being booked for events in both North and Latin America and in Asia this is welcome news for everyone. We travel because we love meeting with our speakers in person which gives us a full read on their capabilities. It allows us to make accurate recommendations to our clients when presented with a specific requirement.

The pandemic and global cost of living crisis have all added to companies and organizations seeking a reset. How this happens is unclear or is it? Almost every company that comes to Promotivate to book a speaker is interested in where we are going and ‘The Future of Work‘. Within this area, two other subdivisions of this topic are ‘Mental Health and Well-Being‘ and ‘Corporate Sustainability‘ as companies push toward achieving carbon net zero output. Great keynote speakers’ three topics are in so much demand that they are taking up about 75% of all Promotivates speaker bookings in 2023. Falling within the overriding topic ‘The Future of Work’ are also speakers on leadership, adapting to lightening changes in technology, and cultural transformation.

Which Keynote Speakers Are We Putting Strong Hire Recommendations On In 2023 – 2024?

Swedish journalist, author, and digital futurist Andreas Ekström wrote a bestselling book about Google – and has since been a leading commentator on all things digital around the world.
We went to see a recent keynote he delivered brilliantly at the Crestron Modern Work Summit in Madrid in May. His talks, always custom-made to fit the audience, will give you mind-blowing perspectives on who controls the money and the power as society goes digital by the minute. His slide deck is the best we have seen.

Andreas Ekstrom: View Speaker Profile

A President and Nobel Prize Laurette

Accompanying 2006 Nobel Prize winner Dr. Muhammad Yunus to Porto was brilliant. Portugal’s largest media group JN Group together with a host of generous sponsors arranged Portugals first first-ever Society Sustainability Forum.

Dr. Yunus was the high-profile keynote speaker who delivered a one-hour talk on the role countries, companies and individuals have to change or we will destroy ourselves and our planet. He emphasized how we need to change mindsets from that of global capitalism and greed to become more generous and accommodating. The catastrophic income divide that exists and continues to widen must be reversed or very shortly, we are going to destroy ourselves.

The high-profile congress was also attended by the President of Portugal, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa who gave the keynote address that followed Dr. Yunus. When the President arrived he had a one-to-one meeting with Dr. Yunus (and me) which was a real privilege for us both. He was scheduled to follow Dr. Yunus’s keynote delivery and had a script prepared. Once he had met and listened to Dr. Yunus’s keynote, he tore up his script and spoke verbatim, referencing Dr. Yunus’s comments throughout his speech. The event was covered across Portuguese media, in print, online, and on television.

It’s Hard Not To Mention ‘The Woz’ in Warsaw

Steve Wozniak speaking at Gen Free Warsaw 2023 — Steve Wozniak, Gen Free. Warsaw University of Technology. September 22nd, 2023

In September we arranged for Apple’s legendary co-founder Steve Wozniak to travel from California and perform a series of events in the Polish Capital, Warsaw. I had the pleasure once again of accompanying Steve to Poland for this five-day visit which The State of Poland supported. It is long known by Steve and others of his ancestral ties to Poland.

On day one Steve addressed the leadership team of the Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego, which is the Polish national development bank. The following day Woz made the six-hour round trip visit to see the frontier with Ukraine for himself. This had been an ambition of Steve’s before us arranging the Warsaw series of events.

On day three, Steve provided a recorded session in front of 60 of Poland’s brightest young scientists at the Ministry of Science. Launched in September 2023 the recording of Steve’s comments will be seen than 532,000 students to help promote the Ministry of Science and Higher Education’s Business and Management program. Steve fielded questions from the students and his answers purposes will inspire and encourage the next generation of young inventors in Poland. Steve will be a mentor for this program going forward.

Later on day three came the main event that we had arranged with Steve being the headline speaker at the 3rd edition of ‘The Three Seas Generation Freedom Future Leaders Conference 2023’. With over 850 attendees packed into the main auditorium of the Warsaw University of Technology, the audience was gripped to know how and why Steve had achieved so much with Apple throughout his career. Woz talked about his unwavering need to be ‘happy’, that he didn’t ever wish to manage people and wasn’t at all motivated by earning money. He gave away his shares in Apple before Apple went public to the benefit of the masses of Apple employees who got them. Apple’s current valuation is c. $3tn value as we write. The entire trip with Steve to Poland was a success and a pleasure and everything, including the multiple requests for media interviews taken care of.
