Thought Leaders Driving the Conversation

At PRoSummit 2025, you'll hear from senior communications professionals, marketing innovators, and media insiders who are defining the strategies that will matter most in 2026.

Our speakers represent the best in the business — leading agencies, household-name brands, media outlets, and rising startups. Every speaker brings real-world experience, proven insight, and actionable ideas you can use to fuel your communications plan.

Why Our Speakers Stand Out

🎤 Hands-on Experience – These aren’t talking heads — they’re doing the work, leading campaigns, and navigating real challenges.
🧠 Cross-Industry Insight – Learn from leaders in tech, healthcare, CPG, education, hospitality, and more.
🛠️ Actionable Takeaways – Each session is built around real tactics you can apply in your 2026 comms plan.
🤝 Access & Connection – Pro Summit is intimate by design. Our speakers are part of the community, not just the stage.
