Calling all SPEAKERS!
SPEAKonomics 2027
Your Voice. Your Message. Your Business.
You have knowledge worth sharing. A message worth hearing. And a business that can grow when more people hear it.
SPEAKonomics is a two-day, action-packed business-of-speaking workshop for business owners who want to turn their expertise, message, and voice into greater visibility, credibility, connections, and revenue.
Whether you're preparing for your first stage or already speaking to audiences of hundreds, SPEAKonomics will give you practical strategies to help you maximize your voice, sharpen your message, and build your business from the stage.
This isn't just about becoming a better speaker.
It's about learning how to make speaking work for your business.
LEARN. SHARPEN. PRACTICE. GROW: At SPEAKonomics, you'll explore the business and the art of getting your message heard—from intimate conversations to major stages, podcasts, social media, and beyond.
THE BUSINESS OF SPEAKING: Learn how to monetize your message, negotiate your stage, choose the right stage for your message, and identify opportunities that can help you profit and grow your business—whether you're speaking one-on-one or one-to-many.
THE ART + BUSINESS OF PODCASTING: Discover how to leverage podcasts to expand your reach and build your business. Learn how to find the right podcasts, pitch yourself to podcasters, make the most of your appearances, and even explore launching your own podcast.
THOUGHT LEADERSHIP: Your stage doesn't have to be a physical stage. Learn how to use YouTube, LinkedIn, social media, and other platforms to build visibility, establish your expertise, and become the go-to expert in your niche.
BUILD A TALK PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR: Workshop your topic titles, descriptions, ideal audience, and takeaways so your message is clear, compelling, and designed to create value for the people you want to reach.
AND THEN… THERE'S THE STAGE.
- Do you have a powerful 3 minutes to share? Because, alongside SPEAKonomics is North America's Next Greatest Speaker Contest—an application-only competition designed to discover and spotlight exceptional speakers.
- Competitors are selected in advance of each SPEAKonomics event, so you don't have to be a contestant to get everything SPEAKonomics has to offer.
- But if you're selected to compete, you'll have the opportunity to put your speaking skills—and your message—into action.
FOUR CITIES. TWELVE SEMI-FINALISTS. ONE ICONIC STAGE.
- In each of the four 2027 SPEAKonomics cities, three speakers will be selected as winners of that city's competition.
- Those 12 speakers become the North America's Next Greatest Speaker semi-finalists and advance to eWomenNetwork ICON27 in Dallas in August 2027.
- At ICON27, each semi-finalist will have the opportunity to deliver a 3-minute talk to an audience of more than 250 attendees.
- And there's more.
- From those 12, three finalists will be selected to return to the ICON27 stage for a 6-minute talk in front of all 600 ICON27 attendees.
- One will ultimately be named North America's Next Greatest Speaker.
TWO DAYS. ONE POWERFUL EXPERIENCE.
Whether you're looking to land better speaking opportunities, monetize your expertise, build your thought leadership, leverage podcasts and social media, become more confident on stage, or simply get crystal clear on the message you want the world to hear.
