Speaking, Training & Workshop Opportunities

Matthew Cooke is available for keynote speaking engagements, panel appearances, and workshop facilitation. Drawing on 12+ years of experience leading high-stakes operations across the maritime, real estate, and emergency response industries, Matthew brings a rare combination of technical depth, real-world storytelling, and hard-won leadership insight to every stage he steps on.

His work on the Golden Ray wreck removal — the largest marine salvage operation in U.S. history — and his recurring appearances on the Weather Channel's Deep Water Salvage series have established him as a credible, compelling voice on complex operations and crisis leadership. Whether addressing industry professionals, aspiring investors, young entrepreneurs, or faith-based communities, Matthew connects with audiences through authenticity, practical knowledge, and the kind of stories you can only tell if you've actually lived them.
