Overview

Warm, quick-witted Conference MC and Awards Host with 500+ five-star reviews. I bring the room to life, support your speakers and keep everything moving - without forced participation, unnecessary ego or making the event feel like it is all about the host.

I’m Alex Ranahan, a London-based Conference MC, Awards Host and Corporate Event Presenter available across the UK. I have hosted hundreds of live, virtual and hybrid corporate events, earned more than 500 five-star reviews and worked with audiences of up to 1,400. My job is to bring the room together, keep the programme moving and make sure the important moments land - while supporting the people on stage and taking pressure away from the organiser. I create energy without creating awkwardness. That means confident guests can get involved, while quieter guests can still feel part of the event without being put on the spot. “It was perfect for encouraging engagement without forcing it.” — Schneider Electric I can help with: • Conference hosting • Awards and gala hosting • Interviews, panels and fireside conversations • Leadership events and company celebrations • Live, virtual and hybrid events Before the event, I take time to understand your audience, objectives, speakers, tone and running order. On the day, I work closely with you and the production team, take confident ownership of the room and adapt calmly when timings or plans change. For full conferences and awards programmes, I can host from the first welcome to the final close - giving the event one consistent voice, keeping the audience connected and leaving you with one less moving part to manage. I have hosted for organisations including Amazon Web Services, Virgin Media O2, Microsoft, Google, Disney, Meta, BlackRock, PwC, KPMG, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Procter & Gamble, LEGO, L’Oréal, PepsiCo and IBM. Clients book me when they want more than someone to read the running order. They want one trusted host looking after the room, supporting the people on stage and keeping the whole event connected.

Excellent Service

Thank you Alex for working with the audience, adapting when things didn't go to plan, supporting everything behind the scenes and helping to keep the event moving. We got very good feedbacks from the speakers, performers and even guest on how you made them feel. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing!!

We had the pleasure of having Alex Ranahan as the host of our Amazon Masters Summit in London. Alex brought incredible energy, professionalism and excitement to the stage. He kept the audience engaged throughout the entire conference, made every speaker feel comfortable and handled the transitions between sessions so naturally. Alex created such a fantastic experience for everyone! Our guests are still talking about him! It was such a pleasure and so comfortable to work with you, Alex. You’re responsive, perfectly prepared and I could tell you were genuinely invested in making the event a success Thank you so so much! You’re quintessentially amazing!
