Identifies Key Trends For Event Professionals and Keynote Speakers in 2023

DURHAM, NC, US, April 3, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- All American Entertainment (AAE) Speakers Bureau is pleased to announce the release of its 2023 Speaking Industry Benchmark Report, the company’s second report of this kind.

In early 2023, more than 500 event professionals were surveyed to generate greater visibility and insight into both sides of the speaking industry – event organizers who book speakers, and professional speakers who captivate audiences.

The 2023 report, a follow-up to the company’s award-winning 2022 Speaking Industry Benchmark Report covers topics including the impact of economic uncertainty on 2023 event plans, priorities that event organizers have when booking speakers, and trends and predictions on the state of the speaking industry in 2023.

In this report, several significant findings emerged, including:

- 81.25% of event organizers said they are concerned about the impact of economic uncertainty on their 2023 event plans.
- The three things that make speakers most likely to accept an offer are whether the event pays their ideal fee (62.76%), whether the topic is relevant to their expertise (61.38%), and whether the event or organization aligns with their values (41.38%).
- The most important goals event organizers have for their booked speakers are audience engagement (69.57%), education for the audience (51.63%), and increased attendance (41.03%).
- When a topic might be controversial, 72.83% of event organizers are likely to request some speech modifications from a keynote speaker, and 95.86% of speakers are happy to oblige.
- Event organizers are planning 26% more events in 2023, and speakers on topics surrounding Corporate Culture will be increasingly in demand this year.

“This 2023 Speaking Industry Benchmark Report, while purely a prediction, gives us all a clearer look at the months ahead, opening the door to better informed, data-driven decisions,” said Greg Friedlander, CEO and Founder of AAE Speakers Bureau. “Thanks to the hundreds of participants who shared their insights, we are in a better position to create dynamic event experiences for attendees in 2023."
