Keynotes & Speaking

Thought leadership at the intersection of law, resolution, and the human experience.

The Speaker

A voice that bridges complexity and clarity

Bimpe Bakare brings to the stage 18+ years of hard-won wisdom from the frontlines of commercial law, international dispute resolution, and deeply personal storytelling. Her talks are precise, warm, and unflinching, the kind that leave an audience differently equipped to face the challenges they walked in with.

She speaks with the authority of someone who has sat across the table in the most difficult negotiations, and the vulnerability of someone who has written honestly about the cost of a life spent in high-stakes environments. It is a rare combination.

Topics

Keynote themes

01

The Art of Resolution

How the principles of interest-based mediation can transform the way organisations and individuals handle conflict, from boardrooms to personal relationships.

02

Women in Law and Leadership

A frank exploration of what it means to be a woman of colour at the top of professional life, and what the institutions that house us must do differently.

03

Navigating Complex Transitions

Whether professional or personal, all great transitions share the same structure. Drawing on law, mediation, and personal memoir, Bimpe maps the path through.

04

Finding Your Fragments

Inspired by her debut memoir, this keynote invites audiences to examine the parts of themselves they have fragmented, hidden, or left behind, and asks what it would mean to become whole.
