November Newsletter
With just under five months to go, the Global Speakers Summit 2026 (GSS 2026) is shaping up to be one of the most inspiring and internationally diverse events in the history of the Global Speakers Federation.
This is the second edition of our regular GSS 2026 Delegate Newsletter, designed to keep you informed, inspired, and connected as we count down to Cairns in March 2026. Every fortnight, we’ll bring you the latest updates, speaker announcements, travel tips, and behind-the-scenes news to help you make the most of your Summit experience.
There’s so much happening and it’s all leading to something extraordinary.
BIG TIME REMINDER!!!
The sessions begin Friday the 13th of March 2026 at 8:00 AM...so don't be flying in Friday night...make sure you get on over to Australia early and get over your jet-lag to kick things off early Friday morning!
