Testimonials
“Danni is a knowledgable, engaging and confident host, with an in-depth understanding of a wide range of different themes and policy areas. Her hosting of the Great Northern Conference was masterful; her considerable research and knowledge of the issues affecting business leaders was clear for all to see.”
“Danni is a popular host of several IoD events, including our prestigious Director of the Year Awards in Yorkshire and the North East. She is always well-prepared, professional and generous with her time. Her presenting style is relaxed and engaging, keeping the evening on track while adding valuable insights drawn from her experience as a business journalist.”
Danni has been the presenter and keynote speaker at a number of our awards ceremonies – and we’re proud of that. Ours is an annual construction industry event that needs refereeing as much as hosting – and Danni has always taken this in her stride. Danni’s keynotes have been pertinent and reflective of our industry’s concerns at the time. I look forward to continuing to work with Danni.
Many thanks Danni for being a great host on our podcast, guiding our guests like a real pro, with some very good questions.
We are hugely grateful for your enthusiastic, well-judged, and professional delivery of Friday’s awards, which you delivered with aplomb, reading the room, organising the various contributors and – most importantly – significantly recognising and celebrating all our worthy finalists, highly commended entrants, and winners. You understood immediately the tone of the event and kept momentum throughout. A class act!
“Working with Danni Hewson has been an absolute pleasure and delight. The atmosphere was electric, everyone was up for a fantastic night. Danni navigated the audience with her professionalism ensuring we stayed on time whilst adding her personal touch.”
