The American Marketing Association recently announced the launch of a Speakers Bureau, powered by Orate, an innovative digital market network that connects event organizers with the most relevant thought leaders, to help marketers easily find, vet, and book experts for their meetings and events.
The Bureau will provide marketers with the ability to tap into marketing experts, industry professionals scholars and researchers with a diverse portfolio of subject areas.
“Together, the AMA, its local chapters and the marketing community at large hosts hundreds of events per year. The new Speakers Bureau is an important initiative to support our ongoing commitment to train and educate marketers with timely and forward-thinking ideas and best practices,” said Russ Klein, CEO of the American Marketing Association.
Marketers will have access to a portal with a list of 2,000 speakers. Visitors can quickly search for speakers, covering a variety of topics and issues, and identify and secure the most relevant expert for their event.
As an additional benefit, marketers who are looking to expand their speaking engagements and exposure as keynoters, panelists, and presenters can use the portal. Planners using the portal to book an AMA Chapter event will receive a discounted rate.
