GDA Speakers

Speakers bureau committed to creating unforgettable experiences. Women owned & operated since 1999.
(28)

Founded in 1999, the agency has built a reputation for its customer centric approach and has thrived as a source for delivering powerful keynotes and inspirational messages for institutions and corporations around the globe. From heroes and survivors to celebrities and policy makers, GDA Speakers has become a bridge for experts and life champions who have the ability to impact audiences from all w

alks of life with their motivational stories and experiential journeys. The firm got its start over a decade ago after founder Gail Davis convinced Nando Parrado to share his story --the heroic survivor of the 1972 plane crash in the Andes that took the lives of many rugby players and their families. Since signing its famed Parrado exclusive, GDA Speakers has become a representative for more than 3,500 high demand speakers.
