WE SOURCE A DIVERSE RANGE OF SPEAKERS TO HELP OUR CLIENTS’ EVENTS STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD

WELCOME

SiP sources a diverse range of speakers, offering impartial advice on the entire speaker spectrum. We are always up-to-date with newly available and undiscovered talent, as well as world-leading experts. Our extensive experience within financial services means we know who goes down well for different segments of the industry, to ensure that similar audiences are not presented with the same content.

As part of MiP, a leading London-based financial marketing company, we uniquely combine specialist knowledge with a wealth of creative conference and marketing expertise.

We have bespoke research capabilities, and an ever-growing database of speakers and experts.

We also work with a dedicated media trainer, facilitating virtual and in-person workshops to help our clients prepare of board meetings and large-scale conferences.

SPEAKER DIARIES & CASE STUDIES

China Roundtable Breakfast

We’ve just rounded things up onsite with Federated Hermes. James Kynge spent 28 years at the Financial Times, serving as Beijing bureau chief and as Global China Editor in London. Currently, he’s Chatham House’s Senior Research fellow on China. Over breakfast this morning James provided research and insights from his latest book, discussing China’s rise to dominance as a global tech superpower, and whether or not this growth is sustainable in the long-term.

More in Madrid

We’ve reached the final session of the morning now – a fireside chat with Josep Borrell, the EU’s Former High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. Across the next 45minutes he and Lucy will discuss deglobalisation as the defining global trend, tariff disputes, supply chain vulnerabilities, the surge in defence spending, the geopolitical repositioning towards China and Latin America, and the ways in which the conflict in Ukraine has reshaped European political diplomacy for the foreseeable future.

Janus Henderson Madrid Investment Summit

We’re delighted to be back in Spain with Janus Henderson at their annual Madrid Investment Summit. Throughout the day we’ll be discussing how deglobalisation is reshaping the investment landscape, and what this means for investors. Returning to host the event is broadcast journalist and SiP favourite, Lucy Hockings.
