Who We Are
Chartwell Speakers is a global speakers agency representing individuals whose ideas shape the way we understand business, politics, science, culture and society. We connect organisations with specialists who can inform, challenge and inspire, bringing depth, relevance and real expertise to every event.
Our approach is simple: where others focus on recognition, we focus on relevance. We help clients explore the questions that matter and match them with speakers who bring clarity, perspective and meaningful insight.
Our Story
Chartwell began as a speakers agency built on curiosity and a belief in the power of speakers to change the way people think. Founded in London in 2007, we started small, working closely with a handful of speakers and clients who cared deeply about ideas.
Over time, that curiosity took us further. Today, Chartwell has grown into a global team with offices in the UK, United States, Asia and Ireland, placing speakers at events around the world while staying true to the same simple belief: the right voice, in the right room, can make a lasting difference.
What We Do
We help organisations, find and book speakers who can elevate their events with expertise, insight and clarity. Our work includes:
- Recommending speakers tailored to your themes and goals
- Managing logistics and contracts
- Preparing speakers and clients for the event
- Supporting delivery and follow-up
From boardroom briefings to global conferences, we ensure every audience leaves informed and inspired.
Our Vision
Our vision is to continue to represent extraordinary individuals for events and conferences, and to be a source of world changing ideas and insights to opinion formers everywhere.
