The Speaking Business Summit 2026

Connection is at the heart of everything we do as professional speakers, trainers, and coaches which is why the theme for 2026 is The Art of Connection. Our ability to truly connect, with our clients, with their audiences, and with each other, has a direct impact on the future of our businesses.

At the 2026 Speaking Business Summit, our speakers will explore The Art of Connection and how we can deepen relationships, build trust faster, and create meaningful moments that last far beyond the stage, the workshop, or the coaching session.

In an industry where influence, reputation, and referrals are built on human connection, mastering this art is no longer optional – it’s essential.

This Summit will challenge you to:

• Refine how you connect with clients so they see you as a trusted partner, not just a service provider.
• Strengthen your ability to connect with audiences, leaving them not only informed but inspired and transformed.
• Expand and enrich the connections within our PSA community, forging relationships that support, encourage, and elevate your speaking business.

At the PSA, we believe that when you Speak More and Speak Better, you don’t just deliver content, you create connection. It’s in that connection that relationships grow, businesses flourish, and legacies are built.

Many speakers say this industry can feel isolating, that it’s hard to find the contacts and make the connections needed to grow and that we can find ourselves thinking and working in an individualistic manner. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

True collaboration requires vulnerability—sharing risks, contacts, and ideas—but the rewards are far greater than anything we could achieve alone.

At the core of the PSA is community, connection, and speaking excellence—a supportive platform for professional growth. It’s time to reignite those foundations and allow collaboration.

Join us at the 2026 Speaking Business Summit as we unlock The Art of Connection and discover how stronger, deeper, more meaningful connections can help you do what you do best, even better.
