Our event logistics team is the best in the speakers bureaus business because we get to know our keynote speakers on an individual basis.
At LAI, our team meets with our exclusive speakers in person to preview their content, delivery style, and get to know their goals and personalities. Our event coordinators often travel with our speakers and see them present multiple times. They have insights into where the talent shines and how planners can get the best out of their bookings.
Friendly, super organized, and incredibly good problem solvers, our event coordinators can help with pre planning Q&A or fireside chats, streamlining timelines, refining topics, answering questions about A/V requirements, procuring books from authors and much more throughout the booking process.
