“The Cooperation with CSA supports MySpeaker’s strategy to open a channel for international speakers to enter the Finnish and Nordic markets. Finnish companies are investing more and more in quality content and specialist know how. Our cooperation with CSA, founded in 1983 and operating in 16 countries outside the Nordics also strengthens our goal to support Finnish and Nordic speakers to enter international speaking engagements”, says MySpeaker CEO Johan Sjöstrand. MySpeaker and CSA Celebrity Speakers’ unique cooperation enables the import of international expertise and speakers to Finnish companies and  events. MySpeaker has a strong understanding of Finnish companies’ speaker needs and it has been acknowledged that clients are investing more and more in international speakers. For example there is a demand for speakers like Simon Sinek, Randi Zuckerberg, Costas Markides, Marcus Buckingham, Pierluigi Collina and Anne Lise Kjaer.

On the other hand, Finnish speakers with international potential will now also start a collaboration with CSA through MySpeaker, such as this years Nordic Business Forum speaker contest winner Anssi Rantanen, Perttu Pölönen, Helena Åhman, Patrick Degerman, Pekka Hyysaloand André Noël Chaker.

Of the speakers above Anssi Rantanen, Costas Markides and Randi Zuckerberg will also be featured on the main stage of the Nordic Business Forum this year.     “We have been looking for a business partner in the Nordic countries and we are delighted to start a cooperation with MySpeaker. There is a growing demand for Nordic keynote speakers. The Nordic know-how, competence and down to earth thinking combined with a high level of expertise and experience is becoming a greatly valued asset globally. I am also happy for MySpeaker to introduce and present some of the international speakers in our portfolio to Finnish and Nordic clients”,  says Dagmar O´Toole, Director at CSA Celebrity Speakers.
