Brighton Base Camp: Bananas – Stephen Grant’s keynote announced
Base Camp is a virtual event packed with inspiring speakers, great networking, and fascinating workshops that will change the way you think. Although you’ll be joining remotely, you’ll be part of something exciting, intriguing, and welcoming.
Run by Brighton Chamber, Brighton Base Camp will replace this year Brighton Summit (which has moved to Oct 20201).
‘Why the bananas!’ Says CEO at Brighton Chamber Sarah Springford ‘Because we have all had a Covid -19 shaped banana thrown into our business this year. Brighton Base Camp will help you take stock, breathe new life into your businesses and prepare for what comes next’.
We are excited to announce that Stephen Grant will be one of the keynote speakers If you’re a local comedy fan, you’ll know all about Stephen Grant, the resident compere at the Komedia’s Krater Comedy Club. Stephen is one of the UK’s funniest, hardest working and most respected comedians, and a regular headliner at The Comedy Store in London’s Leicester Square.
But there’s much more to Stephen than telling jokes.
He’s equally at home as an MC, hosting corporate events and awards nights. He also voices animations, warms up TV audiences and presents radio shows. He even finds time to write for programmes ranging from Mock the Week to Stand Up For The Week, as well as a few other shows that don’t have week in the title.
Stephen will tell us about his route into the comedy industry - how he reached the top and stayed there. In a talk that promises to be surprising, serious, insightful and entertaining, Stephen will explain how diversifying has helped him protect himself in this unpredictable industry. Comedy can be a cruel and volatile business with erratic fluctuations at the best of times - and that’s even when there isn’t a global pandemic raging. He’ll give us an insight into how current business approaches apply to a world that has its own rules.
