A speaker who is an industry expert is the authority on his topic and with knowledge and charisma can inspire, entertain and educate your audience.

When booking an Industry Expert, be sure you have your event details (date, time, location, topic, etc.) and budget lined up before you contact the Industry Expert. Next up, you should book well in advance. Some speakers are booked months or years in advance. However, in some situations you might be able to book less than 60 days in advance. Lastly, pay attention to detail in the contract. What are the traveling expenses? If the traveling expenses are too expensive, consider partnering with another organization to host the same speaker during the same time frame.
