Silent Seminars

Multi-channel wireless headset systems for conferences, exhibitions & live events
  • www.silentseminars.com
  • Silent Seminars

    Award winning multi channel, wireless headset systems which have reshaped the way that audio is presented and consumed within the conference, exhibition and live event industry. It’s a simple concept but one that has huge benefits for both the audience consuming the audio and the event organisers.

    So how does it work? We’ve all heard of a silent disco where party goers at festivals, clubs, weddings etc listen to a selection of DJs/soundtracks through wireless headsets. Silent Seminars have adapted and extended this technology and applied it to the conference & event industry. Audiences listen to presentations, demos or seminars through wireless headsets, moving away from the traditional method of audio presentation – the PA system. Q&A sessions can take place in exactly the same way, the only difference is there’s no amplified noise! So you can be exhibiting on your stand and experience no disturbance from the seminar theatre right next door.

    Silent Seminars have systems capable of running up to 20 breakouts in the same room eliminating the need for separate breakout rooms or expensive noise containing curtains. Each session is tuned to a different frequency and channel on the headset so there is no interference between theatres. Audiences are completely immersed in the material being presented and event organisers can deliver more content on the show floor by maximizing space. Allowing them to bring all of their content and education into the middle of the event rather than having to break off into separate rooms or structures. It’s a much more inclusive way of presenting material and by improving the quality of audio it, the levels of engagement are significantly increased.

    HEADSET USES · Presentations · Seminars · Breakouts · Expo stand demos · Panel talks · Tour guides · Translation

    My marketing and events career spans across four decades and I believe passionately in the value of the events industry and truly love what I do. This passion combined with my lived experience of being neurodivergent and diagnosed with a mental health condition, inspired me to found Event Wellbeing Week #EventWell17 and then incorporate EventWell Ltd in 2017, as the award winning not for profit and community social enterprise that it is in 2023, dedicated solely to supporting neuroinclusion and mental wellbeing in events.

    EventWell is the go-to for neuroinclusive and mental wellbeing friendly spaces in the event industry, and we are here to actively lend a safe space and an active voice to anyone who needs it and feels unheard. We understand that behind every event professional and creative is a person. We are here for that person – any time they need us, in any way they need us, for as long as they need us.

    Things you probably don't know about me:
    • I’ve ran the London Marathon, Great North Run & Royal Parks Half
    • I have rock climbed and abseiled Snowdon (and yet I’m terrified of heights)
    • I've organised a real life 'Brookie'​ soap and celebrity wedding
    • I was voted M&IT Personality of the Year runner up in 2020
    • I’m a little bit arty and a little bit musical, a flautist, and an artist, and currently learning the piano (and the guitar)

    I believe that great conversations can change the world and I love creating environments where people can meaningfully connect. I do this inside my communities, Team CMO, Club Ichi, and The Grown-Up Girls Club, and help companies do this by consulting through my company, The Community Factory.

    I spent 20 years creating corporate events with the usual keynote/breakout/expo/concert format. But now I focus on designing *how*​ people actually connect inside events. When you do this right, it leads to building a great community that extends beyond the conference.

    I'm one of the creators of the Spontaneous Think Tank™ and have led event marketing strategy and teams at Fortune 50 companies and love to consult on how to optimize events within a broader marketing program. I'm an Event Marketer B2B Dream Team nominee and a Smart Meetings Entrepreneur of the Year.

    Oh, and I wrote some books! I'm the lead author of "The Age of Conversation Cookbook: How we created a virtual event in 42 days during a pandemic," as well as "Eyebrows Up!: A guide to engaging with clients, guests, and colleagues," available on Amazon Kindle.

    All of this allows me to help people connect more authentically and form better business and personal relationships. Did we just become best friends?

Michael Jackson

(The Other Michael Jackson) - Conference, Facilitator and Presenter @ over 2,700 events

  • Michael Jackson

    Conference speaker and facilitator.

    Professional speakers create and deliver powerful images and specialised, memorable messages. Those who are able to weave and craft individual company business messages into their presentations are amongst the most highly sought after in their profession.

    As a change agent, I've carved out my corporate reputation as one of the best business-to-business speakers and marketing communication specialists across continents on the global professional circuit by doing just this.

    I am continuously building my portfolio by speaking at around 160 conferences and seminars a year since 1990. My audiences across the United Kingdom, Europe, the USA, Africa and the Middle East remain captivated regardless of their position as factory workers or Heads of State. My clients are diverse and include HP, Microsoft, Virgin Atlantic Airways, Qatar Airways, and many more.

    Once acclaimed by former South African President Nelson Mandela as “a national treasure”, it's been said that I have an uncanny ability to connect with his audiences and I'm often referred to as a passionate champion of business.

    After working with me, Tom Peters (bestselling author of ‘In Search of Excellence’) said that “After Michael Jackson, I’m only the second most enthusiastic person in the room”.

    I've also been widely involved in the media, as a current radio talk show host and occasionally as a business TV presenter.
