What a pleasure it was to work with Richard. From the first chat to the delivery of his session, everything went so smoothly. He really engaged with our audience and blew them away with his session and I could not recommend him enough to other event organisers.
Richard’s keynotes can be customised to meet the needs of any audience. They can be delivered in person or online and can be customised to fit the content and length you need. The only thing he requests is to reserve some time after the presentation as there are always a lot of questions and a lot of engagement.
