What makes a keynote speaker the right choice?

The right keynote speaker will provide that critical make-or-break experience for your entire event.  A competent speaker will bring a combination of expertise on the material and excellent skills in conveying the message.  Speaking events provide a window of opportunity for your audience – a brief but potentially life-changing experience.  The skill of the presenter is what makes the difference between an event that merely happens and one that becomes a memory of a lifetime.

Why Peter Cumbo?

Peter Cumbo’s mix of practical knowledge and speaking expertise makes him an excellent choice for your event.  Peter’s clients constitute a wide variety of industries that have included fashion, manufacturing, health and beauty, medical, educational, union shops, entertainment, food and beverage, publishing, public/government, consulting, and more.  He consults and speaks before all organizational levels – executive, managerial, support stuff, production employees, etc.  Peter has appeared before thousands of audiences and considers the stage his second home – his comfortable command of the room will create that powerful experience that your audience will learn from and remember.

Let’s face it…a keynote speaker is more than a teacher – your audience needs to be entertained while they learn!

Peter is regularly praised for his easy manner with audiences and ability to make speaking events fun and exciting.  His original professional background is in entertainment, and with over two decades of stage experience he knows how to make an impact on an audience.  When he’s not speaking to corporate audiences, Peter can be found on the stage just being funny – he is an improv comic with Buffalo’s longest running comedy show, The Eclectic Improv Company.  Peter Cumbo will bring his comic energy to your audience – infusing your event with the fun and excitement that makes learning meaningful and memorable.

“Peter is entertaining as well as a master of the knowledge he possesses.”
