Bob Geldof is incredibly well informed, not just about African famines and aid organizations, but also about London and Washington politics, global communications and business. His presentations are highly provocative and he uplifts and inspires audiences as he motivates through his own personal experiences and the lessons learned from Live Aid. Sir Bob Geldof is one of the highest ranked and most authorative corporate speakers, conference keynote producers and after dinner speakers currently available.

After a series of hits, including two UK number 1 singles, Geldof emerged as one of the most well known pop personalities of his era. Bob Geldof had always had an acerbic wit and provided excellent interviews with an energy and enthusiasm that matched any of his articulate rivals. After starring in the film of Pink Floyd´s The Wall, he turned his attention to the dreadful famine that was plaguing Ethiopia in 1984.

After receiving a knighthood in June 1986 and publishing his autobiography, Bob Geldof recorded the solo album, “Deep In The Heart Of Nowhere”, which spawned the minor hit “This Is The World Calling´. His second album, “1990’s The Vegetarians Of Love”, was recorded in only five days and proved a hit with critics and fans alike. Complete with folk and Cajun flavorings and an irreverent stab at apathy in the hit single “The Great Song Of Indifference”, the album undeniably proved that Bob Geldof should continue his recording career.

By 1992 Bob Geldof had established himself as a highly astute businessman with his co-ownership of the television production house Planet 24, which began life as Planet Pictures back in the mid-80s. The company broke into the big time by launching the pioneering early morning television series The Big Breakfast in 1992. Planet 24 was sold to Carlton TV.

In the late 90s, when Bob encountered problems booking a family holiday over the Internet for his children and his French actress girlfriend Jeanne Marine, Geldof founded online travel agent Deckchair.com. Geldof did it in conjunction with James Page, the successful creator of the Eidos software company, responsible for Lara Croft. Deckchair was purchased by OTC (Online TRavel Corporation) in June 2003.

Ten Alps Communications was founded by Bob Geldof and Alex Connock in 1999 and sprouted from what was left of Planet 24, their previous TV venture. The name Ten Alps comes from a backwards, misspelling of Planet. Ten Alps has been hugely successful and, of recent, productions have included High profile documentaries for the BBC, Channel 4, Five, Sky One and Discovery Events that Changed our World (with Michael Buerk), Jeremy Vine Meets, To Kill and Kill Again, and Manchester United´s Top 50 Goals / The Top 50 Goals Scored Against Manchester United. Thirty-five productions are currently underway fueled by the growth in broadcasters´ appetite for factual TV.

Amongst a number of recent recognitions, Bob received an honorary Doctorate (Doctor of Laws) from the National University of Ireland, was awarded the MTV “Free Your Mind Award” (Lisbon 4/11/05), the EPM Marketer of the Year Award (Los Angeles), The North-South Council Award (Lisbon 21/11/05) and the Nobel Man of Peace Award which was presented to him by Mikael Gorbachev at a ceremony in Rome on 24 November 2005.

Bob was recognized by Time Magazine as one of the 2005 European Hero´s and made the front cover of their European Edition on 10th October 2005. In January 2007 Bob Geldof was honoured by Newcastle University who awarded him a Doctorate of Civil Law at a ceremony with Gordon Brown MP, HE William Mpaka, Susan George and Dr David Golding.

Bob has now been nominated for the Nobel Peace Award 2007. This is Bob´s sixth nomination and follows the Nobel Man of Peace Award that he received in 2005.

On 5 May 2007 Bob was invited to meet with Tony Blair at Downing Street to look back at the Gleneagles agreements and progress in Africa since, and what the future may hold. The meeting was recorded and put on the Prime Minister´s website. We have managed to obtain a copy and to listen just click here.
