Get ready to catch a wave of energy, innovation, and inspiration! The Midwest Speakers Bureau Showcase is back with an exciting theme — “Surf’s Up! Speakers that Make a Splash!” — and it’s your chance to discover powerful keynote speakers who know how to captivate an audience and leave a lasting impact.


Why Attend?

This isn’t your typical showcase. Each of the 14 hand-selected speakers has just 12 minutes to make their mark — delivering fast-paced, high-impact presentations designed to energize, educate, and entertain. It’s a morning filled with laughter, leadership, storytelling, and strategies you can take back to your next event.

Whether you’re planning a conference, corporate retreat, annual meeting, or professional development day, this is your one-stop opportunity to experience dynamic keynote speakers live — before you book.


Meet the Wave Makers

🌟 From Innovation to Inspiration
You’ll preview 14 diverse, in-demand keynote speakers who specialize in topics ranging from business growth and resilience to motivation, culture, and creativity. These speakers don’t just talk — they connect, engage, and create memorable moments on stage.

🍽️ Lunch with the Speakers
After the showcase, enjoy lunch with the speakers themselves! Network, ask questions, and dive deeper into the ideas that resonated with you. It’s a rare opportunity to build meaningful connections and explore speaker options tailored to your audience.

🌊 Ride the Momentum
You’ll leave the event with fresh, actionable ideas, new contacts, and confidence in your next speaker selection. The energy is real — and the inspiration lasts well beyond the morning.
