Need A Keynote Speaker?

Are you in need of a keynote speaker for your next corporate event? At Nationwide Speakers Bureau, we specialize in matching effective speakers that make a lasting impression on your audience. With over 6,000 satisfied customers, we know what it takes to add the winning touch to your next event. The Wall Street Journal calls Nationwide Speakers Bureau “One of America’s leading lecture agencies,” and we are frequently quoted in USA Today, The New York Times, Advertising Age, Sports Illustrated, and every major meeting industry trade publication. If you’ve flown internationally on United Airlines over the last couple of years, you’ve no doubt viewed Nationwide and our speakers through our in-flight speaker programming project.

Since 1985 when our first exclusive Pat Riley addressed a local Sears sales rally, we have developed the speaking careers of some of the finest presenters in America today. When the inspirational film “Rudy” came out, we confirmed the real-life Rudy Ruettiger for over 120 speeches; when Dr. Jerri Nielsen returned from The South Pole having detected – and treated – her own breast cancer, we placed her in 75 appearances over the next year; when Coach Dick Vermeil became the oldest coach in NFL history to win a Super Bowl, Nationwide was there with 45 dates in a lengthened off-season; and Nationwide took a team of F-15 fighter pilots – The Afterburners – from a single contract with Home Depot to an expansive list of corporations and associations interested in hearing their Business Is Combat leadership fundamentals. Companies and associations alike have learned to rely on Nationwide for cutting-edge speakers on a variety of topics.

Our satisfied customer list reads like a Who’s Who of meeting planning: AON Risk Services, Wal-Mart, Kodak, Lexus, Mutual of Omaha, Hilton Hotels, The National Association of Realtors, Kinko’s, The Million Dollar Round Table and Fidelity Investments are just a few of our repeat customers. And over the years, we’ve booked the best: Neil Armstrong, Mickey Mantle, Barbara Bush, Rick Pitino, Jesse Jackson, Gary Player, Martha Stewart, Tom Brokaw, Deepak Chopra, Muhammad Ali, Tom Peters, Terry Bradshaw and many, many more.

Nationwide’s base in Century City – The Entertainment Capital of the World – offers our customers the ease of booking big-name entertainment for meetings and conventions. Dana Carvey, Huey Lewis and The News, George Lopez, Wayne Brady, KC and The Sunshine Band, and Elton John are just some of the talents we’ve recently confirmed.

For celebrity placement in Advertising and Media campaigns, America’s leading Advertising Agencies and Public Relations firms rely on us as the nation’s authority on matching sports celebrities with industry. Our most memorable placements have included Coaches Rick Pitino, Bobby Knight and John Thomson in a National Television spot for Taco Bell, Tommy Lasorda in a Media and Television/Print Advertising campaign for Merck Phamaceuticals/Ketchum PR on “Lowering Your Cholesterol,” and a year-long “Charity Challenge With Propecia” contest between Major League Baseball players John Smoltz, Walt Weiss, Roberto Alomar, Gary Gaetti, Bret Saberhagen and Stan Javier – to see who could grow more hair using the Merck product.

Whatever your set of parameters, we’re ready to meet the challenge. From an initial brainstorming session with your team to the standing ovation at your coveted event. Nationwide’s dedication and commitment to customers stands tall. Again and again.
