Founder

Harvey Lee - Marketing Keynote Speaker

Are you planning an event and need a speaker who can rock the stage?

Your audience will love your event if they either leave inspired or learn something useful for their jobs. I say, "Why not both"? And we can make it entertaining too.

I started my career in the music and entertainment industry. Through my 25 years in marketing, I've used humour to entertain as much as I've informed. How? I lift the lid on my 12 years on the original Xbox team, educating organisations on my jam - product marketing. I do this whilst untangling complex data and simplifying concepts into easy-to-understand, actionable insights.

2023 saw me hit the road to educate, inspire and motivate audiences in New York, San Francisco, Oakland, Amsterdam, London and online.

Because I'm on your team, we'll work together - I'll assist with pre-planning, be fully present on event day, and add value post-event.

Are you ready to rock?

"Insightful, engaging and mind-opening. Harvey captivated the audience in a way few speakers can - and left us craving more."

"I can't stop talking about Harvey's Xbox talk. At work, I'm sharing the lessons. At home, I'm sharing the fascinating backstory behind the product."

"Three Lessons Xbox Taught the World" illustrated that the essence of market disruption is not the size of your investment but the precision of your messaging. His lessons are a masterclass in strategic marketing.
