We asked Amy to screen her PBS Newshour documentary and talk about her experience reporting on Syrian refugee entrepreneurs in Jordan to launch our summit for inclusive finance investors. Amy supported her broadcast piece with insights about commercial opportunities, many of which could only be learned about through reporting in the field. We were delighted with her talk. Our audience of international investors found it memorable and impactful, inspiring many to take action.

Your talk is very inspirational... I never thought about how to tell a good story and the impact it can have! It was a great pleasure and very valuable.

It’s not often that you come across a combination of a talented journalist and a speaker like Amy. Amy’s presentation covered the importance of storytelling and the relationship between start-ups and journalism. She presented three stories about unusual entrepreneurial successes from all over the world, and urged attendees to find their own unique story. Spark.me's crowd loved Amy’s presentation which was full of real-world journalism tips, presented in a no-nonsense way. I sincerely recommend Amy as a speaker to every conference program director!

In 2017, Amy Guttman’s outstanding reputation as a reporter and journalist prompted us to invite her as a moderator for two of our signature Panels for the prestigious Asian Leadership Conference x Hello Tomorrow Korea. Our confidence in her abilities was magnified when pre-conference, after discussing her sessions and defining the direction of each session, Amy adopted a strong pro-active approach. Not only did she continue to develop the session’s content, but she also co-ordinated the related program structure with our various speakers. Our workload was considerably lightened by her hands-on approach, an absolute boon for us during an exceptionally stressful time. Amy’s sessions ran very smoothly, and she was not only able to clearly direct her speakers, but also managed to engage the audience in doing so. She exerted a professionalism and knowledge of the topics covered that was second to none and drew an audience into the room to over-capacity. Working with Ms Guttman was an immense pleasure, and we will unreservedly employ her skills as a moderator for all our major conferences in the future.

Amy’s insights on how to address media were extremely useful for the 1000 startups attending the Hello Tomorrow Global Summit. We see so many incredible entrepreneurs but many of them have trouble effectively communicating about their projects. Amy’s workshop is a vital part of an entrepreneurs' tool kit and the perfect balance between practical and inspirational.

I discovered Amy at a tech conference and immediately knew that I wanted her to share her insights with our start-ups and innovators at the European Innovators Summit 2018 in Berlin. She has a compelling way of breaking down what it takes to trigger a good story, which everyone can easily apply. Her exercise-driven and interactive approach made the workshop a great success. Participants felt the session provided great value and a starting point for defining and developing their media strategies. We would work with Amy any time again and I can definitely recommend her for other events aimed at delivering value to portfolio companies.
