UK speaker agency partners with the “Glastonbury for business” to bring world-class entrepreneurs, business leaders and thought leaders to one of the UK’s leading entrepreneurship festivals.
Champions Speakers has been named the official speaker bureau for Ideas Fest 2026, the two-day business and entrepreneurship festival bringing more than 6,000 entrepreneurs, founders and business leaders together in Hertfordshire on 9th and 10th September.
Described as the “Glastonbury for business”, Ideas Fest brings together ambitious entrepreneurs, founders, investors and business leaders for two days of ideas, inspiration, networking, entertainment and experiences, creating a fresh alternative to the traditional business conference.
As official speaker bureau, Champions Speakers will work closely with the Ideas Fest team to curate and deliver an exceptional programme of speakers, bringing some of the most inspiring and influential voices in business and entrepreneurship to the festival stage.
The 2026 line-up includes an impressive collection of entrepreneurs, founders and high-profile figures, including Greg Jackson, Louise Hill, Spencer Matthews, Kirsty Murphy and Jez Rose.
Champions Speakers brings more than two decades of experience connecting organisations and events with leading keynote speakers, entrepreneurs, business personalities and thought leaders.
The agency was recently recognised as SME of the Year at the British Business Awards, in association with NatWest Group and in partnership with The Times and The Sunday Times, further reflecting its position within the UK business events and speaking industry.
Jack Hayes, Managing Director at Champions Speakers, said: “We’re incredibly proud to be supporting Ideas Fest as its official speaker bureau. It’s a genuinely exciting event with a bold vision, and we believe it’s a natural fit for Champions Speakers.
“Ideas Fest has created something very different in the business events space. Bringing more than 6,000 entrepreneurs together in an environment that feels more like a festival than a traditional conference is a fantastic concept.
“We’re delighted to play a role in bringing some of the most inspiring, thought-provoking and entertaining voices in business and entrepreneurship to the stage, and helping create an experience that attendees will remember long after the festival ends.”
The partnership builds on Champions Speakers’ extensive work with organisations and events across the UK, connecting audiences with speakers who can educate, challenge and inspire, while helping event organisers create programmes that deliver genuine value for their audiences.
For Ideas Fest, the partnership will help further its ambition to give entrepreneurs access to the ideas, insights and experiences of people shaping the future of business, alongside opportunities to network, discover new perspectives and experience a festival format unlike the traditional conference.
Ideas Fest 2026 takes place on 9th and 10th September in Hertfordshire, bringing together more than 6,000 entrepreneurs and business leaders for two days of talks, experiences, networking and entertainment.
