What is a Keynote Speaker?

Keynote speakers unpack an event’s theme through their unique understanding, to leave audiences with a new perspective.

What is the Duration of a Keynote Speech?
Keynote speeches comprehensively explore a specific belief or theme. Such in-depth detail requires adequate time, so most keynote speeches are between 45 and 60 minutes. Anything under 20 minutes is considered too short, as it limits the speaker’s talking points and could risk missing important details.

There is no single price when hiring a keynote speaker. However, as they are experts in their field, these speakers can cost from hundreds to thousands of pounds, with award-winners and bestselling authors potentially costing more.
