Laugh and learn with one of Australia's most dynamic and engaging minds. Adam Spencer is an iconic star of radio and television, and now a leading conference MC and keynote speaker. Artificial intelligence is where he is most in demand: he cuts through the hype on AI, cyber security, the future of work and the ChatGPT revolution to leave audiences with takeaways they can use right away. But Adam is far more than an AI speaker, and that range is exactly why organisers keep booking him.
With 25 years across television, radio and live events, Adam has hosted award winning breakfast radio in Australia's toughest markets, fronted live current affairs television, and hosts the hit TV series Epic Builds, which drew more than 3 million viewers in Australia. He shared the 2013 TED stage in California with Elon Musk, Ben Affleck and Bono, has won improvised theatre competitions, and once interviewed John Travolta in front of 75,000 people. Whether an event is technically demanding with dozens of moving parts or has him flying by the seat of his pants, he brings the same energy, engagement and entertainment to every stage, set and screen.
As an MC and host, Adam does the research and crafts the narrative that helps people tell their story, and it is remarkable what he draws out of them. He has interviewed prime ministers, Hollywood stars, Fortune 500 CEOs, Nobel Prize winning scientists and Australians of the Year, and he was the first person in the world to interview the legendary Thai cave rescuers, all with the obsessive focus on keeping to time that only 15 years of breakfast radio can teach.
So whether you want your CEO, SMEs and customers brought to life on stage, or a room that laughs while it learns about the very latest in AI and tech, Adam is informative, thought provoking and genuinely entertaining every time.
