Keynote speaker series
Learn from the best
Our internship program includes 12 months access to our interactive keynote speaker series featuring global business leaders.
Our accomplished keynote speakers are well-known for their extensive expertise and success across different career fields. These live online talks take place every two weeks and give you the chance to learn what it really takes to make it. You have the opportunity to ask live questions in the Q & A section of every talk.
There is a reason Fortune 500 companies invest large sums of money for an in-person, keynote address from a global business leader to their staff: their insights are, quite simply, first-class. Our internship program allows you to access these career insights, live and online, and ask the burning questions you have.
A small sample of our keynote speakers
“I’ve taken away some invaluable knowledge from the keynote speaker series and thoroughly enjoyed the discussion topics! It was a brilliant way to interact with the other interns as well as the keynote speakers themselves. It’s a very unique experience and the lineup of speakers is amazing. I felt so fortunate to be able to hear from and interact with so many accomplished individuals, and I’ve certainly taken away some figurative gold nuggets from each talk, that I’ll be sure to use in the future.” – Hashikka Luxman, Alumni
