This year Nordic Business Forum partnered with MySpeaker for the second edition of the Speaker Contest. Through the Speaker Contest both NBF and MySpeaker hope to discover ingenious talent, innovative concepts, and intriguing perspectives from professionals and first-timers alike.

The themes of the 2019 contest have been leadership, innovation, and marketing.
Since MySpeaker wants to develop speakers and give them the feeling of a community, the NBF and MySpeaker partnership allowed the semi-finalists and finalists to attend the ”Rheto-Rich Retreat” – a workshop-style retreat designed to help coach the aspiring speakers to succeed in the contest and in their professional careers.

The retreat was held at Villa Stenberg in Lojo on the 9-10th of May, 2019, and was hosted by MySpeaker’s Chairman of the Board André Nöel Chaker.

The final round of the Speaker Contest will be held at Helsinki Airport tomorrow (Thursday 23 May) from 17:30 to 20:30 UTC +3.
