AILBHE & IZZY
Founders of Izzy Wheels
International Keynote Speakers on Creativity, Inclusion & Innovation
Ailbhe and Izzy Keane are award-winning entrepreneurs, sisters, and the co-founders of Izzy Wheels, the Irish brand transforming wheelchairs into statements of self-expression through fashion-led wheel covers.
​
Together, they have built a globally recognised brand that began at their kitchen table and grew into collaborations with Disney, Barbie, Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, and more. Their story has been featured by Forbes, the BBC, Vogue, and international media around the world.
​
What makes their talks truly unforgettable is the unique dynamic they bring to the stage. Combining Ailbhe’s expertise in branding, marketing, entrepreneurship, and innovation with Izzy’s lived experience as a wheelchair user and disability advocate, their talks are both deeply personal and highly practical.
​
Their keynotes challenge audiences to rethink inclusion, creativity, resilience, and leadership. Through honesty, humour, storytelling, and real-world business insights, they inspire teams and organisations to embrace innovation, lead with empathy, and create meaningful impact.
​
Audiences leave feeling energised, motivated, and equipped with a new perspective on what is possible when inclusion and creativity work together.

We have had the privilege of having Ailbhe Keane speak at some of our larger events like Inspirefest and International Women’s Day, and more intimate fireside chat-style meetings with some of our start-up teams. Ailbhe is a sensational speaker. She is passionate and driven to make a difference and is above all, authentic and utterly sincere in how she goes about doing that. She also appeals to audiences on multiple levels, from inclusion and diversity to commercial to fashion to people’s interests. This combination of passion, enthusiasm, good humor, the fact that she is a tremendous human being, and punchy delivery makes her compelling listening and often leaves our audiences inspired and a little bit humbled. We would highly recommend her as a speaker and look forward to welcoming her into Accenture again in the near future”
- Peter Cleary, Innovation Manager
Based on an effusive recommendation from a team member who'd worked with Ailbhe and Izzy on a previous event, we booked them as our keynote speakers for an event hosting 200 education leaders and educators from across Ireland.
It was a brilliant decision. Their session was one of the highest rated of the day and the feedback we received was phenomenal. The content was inspirational and uplifting and the delivery was so genuine and engaging. The message deeply resonated with our audience and guests were queuing up to chat with Ailbhe and Izzy after the session.
From a logistical standpoint, they were so easy and lovely to work with, meeting any deadline and open to feedback. We wholeheartedly recommend them to any organisation seeking truly inspirational and uplifting speakers"
