Johannes Kleske discusses his Spekaery Summit Experience

The best

The Speakery Summit wasn't just talks - it was a goldmine of ideas I can actually use, plus a chance to meet amazing people who've already become friends and collaborators. I left with pages of notes, a head full of inspiration, and a clear plan to level up my speaking skills - hands down the best event I've been to, and I've already marked next year's dates.

Matt Ballentine describes the Speakery Summit as Spectacular

Spectacular

The best event I have ever attended? How can I be so sure? The content was expertly curated and constructed. The story ran throughout the two days, and Marcus carefully and creatively included his guests to add to the narrative. The numbers meant that everyone was a willing and active contributor. The venue was spectacular. And beautifully organised. The surprises kept on coming.

*details to follow

arriving by
TRAIN

The train journey to Ruhpolding is a scenic adventure, but it does require a time commitment—around two hours from Munich. As you weave through the Alps, the breathtaking views more than make up for the journey. Many say it’s time well spent!

arriving by
CAR

The 90-minute drive from Munich to Ruhpolding is nothing short of breathtaking. As you pass Chiemsee, the Bavarian Alps rise on the horizon, drawing you into their embrace as you ascend toward the summit. We encourage car-sharing—if you have a spare seat, let us know so fellow summit guests can join the journey!

arriving by 
PLANE

Hello, international guests! We highly recommend flying into Salzburg, just a short hop from Ruhpolding and Wandl. Munich International Airport is also a great alternative. Need travel advice? We're happy to help—just reach out!
