Andrea Gori is an entrepreneur, sustainability leader, and green technology expert who helps organisations understand the commercial realities of the energy transition, climate innovation, and sustainable business strategy.
Andrea is the Founder and Chief Earth Officer of illuminem, a leading sustainability information and data platform recognised by Angel List as one of Europe's Top Digital Startups. He is the youngest professor at HEC Paris, where he teaches Europe's only Greentech course, and formerly served as Boston Consulting Group's Global Green Champion, advising multinational companies and governments on sustainable investment and innovation. His TEDx talk on ESG is the most-watched Italian-language talk on sustainability and the United Nations has recognised him as one of its Global Impact Makers.
Drawing on experience spanning entrepreneurship, academia, and global consulting, Andrea explains how sustainability is reshaping markets, investment, and business strategy. His work connects emerging technologies, policy, finance, and corporate decision making, helping leaders understand where commercial opportunities are developing, how climate innovation is evolving, and what organisations need to do to remain competitive through the energy transition.
Audiences leave with a clearer understanding of the practical business implications of sustainability, the pace and potential of green technology innovation, and how investment, regulation, and market forces are influencing future growth. Andrea combines research, real-world consulting experience, and insight from building one of Europe's leading sustainability platforms into practical frameworks organisations can apply.
Book Andrea for a practical perspective on sustainability, innovation, and the business opportunities created by the energy transition.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
