The sports category was just one of the areas that our celebrities came from, however. We also had clients go in a different direction; choosing speakers like Dean Kamen, Steve Forbes, Cokie Roberts and Nancy O’Dell.

Brooks International does not exclusively represent any speaker; rather we work for the client in order to always find the best fit for each different event. Our clients are our number one priority and we pride ourselves on always finding the best fit for each and every event.
