About Us

Celebrity Speakers (NZ) Ltd is New Zealand's foremost professional speakers and entertainment agency – specialising in the provision of high profile speakers, personalities, trainers, celebrities and entertainers. Owned by Louise Ryburn and the Saxton Management Corporation it is a uniquely New Zealand company now also part of a global brand – one of the first and largest of its kind in the world.

We offer world class service and support which includes connecting you with: our global network of exclusively managed speakers; inspiring solutions for your event; and the experience that comes from being one of the first and largest organisations of our kind in the world.

Founded (in 1989) by the late Debbie Tawse, the company has long been this country's leading specialist in providing local and international keynote convention speakers, business consultants, facilitators and motivators, media and sporting personalities, MCs (emcees) and entertainment for corporate events.

Our skilled team at Celebrity Speakers (NZ) Ltd is dedicated to far more than simply supplying speakers, consultants, personalities or entertainers.

They bring knowledge and expertise to the process.

Not simply a deep knowledge of what we do; nor just the personal knowledge of the skills, experience and talents of all our speakers and entertainers; but – and most importantly – a strong focus on gaining a practical knowledge of our clients, their markets and their needs.

We operate in a dynamic business environment. To thrive in that environment we have to continually re-examine how we can make our customers successful. We have to be as enterprising, sophisticated, and future-focused as they are.
