Global Conferences and Top Speakers in Spain

Spain is an excellent location for a Global Conference or Convention. Spain has a warm and pleasant climate, making it an attractive destination for events all year round, and it is well connected to the rest of the world through its international airports and high-speed trains.

Spain has a well-developed conference infrastructure, with modern and well-equipped convention centers in major cities, and Spain is known for its hospitality, and conference attendees can expect to receive warm and friendly service.

Barcelona, Madrid, San Sabastian, and Zaragoza

Barcelona, the cosmopolitan capital of Spain’s Catalonia region, is known for its art and architecture. Barcelona is inventive, and international and attracts investors from all over the world. The biggest events and conferences are held in Barcelona. It has the infrastructure to host a world-class Global Conference or event.

Madrid, the capital of Spain, and the second largest city in Europe welcomes some of the biggest European events every year. Madrid offers an excellent infrastructure like IFEMA but also very good hotels to host your events such as The Madrid Marriott Auditorium Hotel, The Eurostars Madrid Tower, or the NH Collection Madrid Eurobuilding.

San Sebastian is a sparkling city famous for its gastronomy and wonderful landscapes. The Kursaal Congress Centre and Auditorium is the ideal place to celebrate any event and overlooks the sea.

Zaragoza (Saragossa in English) is an important destination for Global Conferences. Ideally located this destination offers high-quality facilities and hotels to host your event. The city is famous for its folklore, local cuisine, and landmarks such as the Basílica del Pilar, La Seo Cathedral, and the Aljafería Palace.

Finding Top Speakers in Spain

Holding a Global event in Spain means that celebrity and professional keynote speakers would love to be booked providing that you meet their fees and travel expenses. You can therefore be very selective about whom you reach out to. That said, as the President of the Professional Speakers Association of Spain, I can tell you that there are some very talented and inspirational speakers, living and working in Spain, Portugal, and across the waters in the UK, Gibraltar, and Tunisia.

Regardless of your Global Conference theme, when engaging a motivational speaker, you want to ask yourself, what will the audience takeaway be?

• What will they think differently?
• What will they feel differently?
• What will they do differently?

An inspirational story is essential, but unless your speaker has an impact on the audience, it's not motivation, it's entertainment. So, define your objectives and then research the speaker's style to your event theme and outcomes.

Conclusion

Having been a professional speaker for over 20 years I have seen that sometimes a great speaker, can 'bomb' if they are not a match for the audience, and sometimes a great event is ruined by poor speaker selection.

Professional speakers realize that their competition is not other speakers, but bad a speaker who sour meeting planners from wanting to hire a motivational speaker for their next event. This is why I have coached and mentored up-and-coming speakers and work with only those speaker bureaus who carefully curate their offerings to clients.

Therefore, if you are looking for a motivational speaker in  Spain, or anywhere Globally, I would welcome your inquiry, to see if we are a fit, or whether I can recommend someone for you and your event.
