Digitized
September 2015 - В настоящее время здесь (8 лет 7 месяцев)
Honoured to be working with the excellent Digitized team at this yearly digital design conference.

Interviewed the conference's presenters live on stage after each presentation with questions from the audience and of my own. With no access to the presentations beforehand.

- Researching the presenters before the conference
- Responsible for moving the conversation forward and keeping it on topic
- Ability to tailor questions 'on the fly' to both suit each presenter's presentation and for the audience's needs
- Curate and pick the best questions from Twitter during each presentation
- Cite the audience and keep them involved
- Curate a 30 minute panel around a specialist topic. E.g. UX

At the 2016 event Digitized asked me to be the host and introduce each speaker too. I kept to a 'no jokes' and 'keep it quick' format which made sure the speakers were always the ones centre stage.
