“People still make the difference.  I have now been cooperating with the London Speaker Bureau (LSB) and Maria Franzoni for almost 10 years and with great pleasure. For me, a keynote speaker, it is of the utmost importance that that a client gets what he expects. To make this happen the London Speaker Bureau plays a very important role as the link between the client and the speaker. LSB knows the speaker, his experiences and themes in which he has special insight and interest. LSB is the quality control ensuring that the speaker and the client are well matched. Maria has for me played that role to perfection. Never have I nor the clients I have served been disappointed, because the content of my speech was not what they expected.” Anders Knutsen, Former President, Bang & Olufsen
