English speaking host for conferences, trade shows and corporate events.I speak fluent boardroom, engineering and audience. Mostly at the same time.
As a professional presenter for tech conferences, corporate events and galas, I’ll draw your guests away from their smartphones and back into the action. I speak German and English at a native level and with confidence, maintaining the calm atmosphere that a live event demands.
About me
My name is Felix Uhlig. I’ve been a presenter for over 16 years.
Not the sort who just reads from the script. Not the sort who waits for someone to tell them what to do. But the sort who carries your event – even if the speaker is late, the technical equipment plays up or the programme has to be changed at short notice.
My first computer was a 386 running MS-DOS and Windows 3.0. Today, I facilitate discussions on artificial intelligence, electric mobility and digital transformation. In between, there have been many years of curiosity about everything that moves, connects or can be improved.
My clients don’t just book me once. Most of them come back. That says more than any description ever could.

What you get
Four things you can count on
Your audience stays with you. All the way to the end.
I host so that nobody checks out. No dead air, no dragging. Just a room people want to stay in.
Your speakers feel safe and come across as themselves.
Board member or first-time speaker. I give them calm and structure, so that on stage they look like the person they actually are.
I take work off your plate. I don't add to it.
I know how these days run, I read the room and I solve things before you notice them. After 16 years, that part is simply routine.
Humour that stays warm and stays professional.
Light when it fits. Serious when it matters. Always with a feel for the room.

Not all hosting is the same
What kind of event is it?
Host
Composed with or without a show. Present when it counts.
Corporate event host
Structure, warmth and energy. From the annual party to the panel.
Trade show host
Pulls visitors to your booth and keeps them there. English and German.
Tech host
Keeps a full programme on time and makes complex topics land.
Gala host
Evening programme, honours and award ceremonies. Elegant, with a feel for timing.
TV host
To camera instead of to a room. Live broadcast, recording, interview.
You only realise how good a presenter is when they’re not there.
Sometimes black tie, sometimes jeans
Photos? Photos!
Simple and low effort

FAQ
And if your question isn’t here: just call. Five minutes on the phone usually clears everything up.
Honestly: not a few hundred euros, and not television-celebrity money either. Somewhere in between there is a fair number, and it depends on how many days and preparation is involved. Easiest way to find out is to call: +49 40 1805 80 80.
Watch the showreel. Trust your gut. Then call me for five minutes, that is usually all it takes to know whether the chemistry works.
Date, place and occasion. Nothing more at the beginning. We sort out the rest on a call.
As early as you can, but short notice often works too. Call and we will see whether the date is still open.
That is a situation I am sometimes the answer to. Call me, we talk it through, and if it fits I am there. It has happened more than once. It has always worked.
Yes, at native level, and this page is a fair sample of it. German is just as native, so a bilingual event is not two hosts and a handover, it is one person switching mid-sentence when the room needs it. I have been doing that on conference stages, panels and trade show floors for years.
Regularly. Where the event takes place makes no difference. I organise travel myself and reliably, whether that is Berlin, Munich or Singapore.
Probably. Automotive, tech, energy, healthcare, retail. Over 16 years I have hosted across most sectors. Asking costs nothing.
Yes. Board member, expert or someone from the audience, I get them talking without it feeling like an interview.
Yes. In person, online, hybrid. Same energy, same preparation.
As little as possible. I need one briefing call, the running order and some background. I do the rest myself. You should be able to lean back. That is what I am there for.
Very. Overruns, new requirements, unexpected moments. That is part of the job. I stay calm when other people cannot.
Felix stepped in for the OMR Masterclass at a day's notice and delivered brilliantly. Highly professional, with plenty of charm and a perfect feel for the audience.
