The right host for a first impression

01

Product launch host

Cuts through the noise and keeps your brand messaging central, whether it is tech, luxury goods or something brand new to the market.

02

Venue launch host

Sets the atmosphere for prestigious openings, with experience at venues including the Park Hyatt London on the River Thames.

03

Press launch host

Manages media environments, journalist Q&As and shareable moments, all while keeping firm control of the room.

Broadcast-quality delivery

A launch often lives on long after the doors close, on livestreams, social clips and press coverage. A television background means I deliver to camera as confidently as to the room, so the moment looks as good online as it felt in person.

  • Television background with Fox, BBC, Warner Bros and Universal
  • Experience at Olympic Stadium and major brand events
  • Comfortable with livestreaming and broadcast-quality delivery
  • Keeps the brand message central from start to finish

How I run a launch

A launch lives or dies on one moment, and everything around it is build-up and follow-through. My job is to shape that arc: warm the room without giving the game away, hand the stage to your product or your leadership at exactly the right second, then carry the energy through the demo, the questions and the mingle so nobody drifts off before the part you booked the room for.

Because I present as well as host, I can front the reveal itself, run a live demo to camera, or interview the person launching it, rather than just introducing whoever does. For a hybrid or streamed launch that matters: I have spent years working to a live rundown and a lens, so the online audience gets the same moment as the room.

  • A build-up that creates anticipation without spoiling the reveal
  • The reveal staged so attention lands on the product, not the host
  • Demos, interviews and Q&A kept sharp and on time
  • One host across the room and the camera for hybrid launches

Product, venue and press launches

A product launch, a venue opening and a press event are three different rooms. A product launch is about the reveal and the story around it. A venue opening is about hospitality and first impressions, moving guests through a space while keeping the energy up. A press launch is tighter and more exact, built around the quotes and the footage the room came to get.

I host all three, and I shape the running order to whichever one you are actually running, rather than a single stock format. Tell me which it is and who is in the room, and I will build the night around the result you need from it.

My company used Kevin’s services for our awards evening, and we were blown away with his performance! From the time of engagement Kevin was very clear and communicative, gave great advice and set clear deadlines.
Fahim Modak, Director, Zentar UK
Kevin is a fantastic host. I used him as a toastmaster for a corporate event. I booked him last minute and with minimal prep time, he managed to provide an exceptional service. He was professional and went above and beyond to ensure that our guests were engaged throughout the course of the event.
Doreen K, Project & Operations Manager, Fireaway
Great man and Fantastic Host! I met Kevin when he was the host of the launch of my life’s most important event so far. The launch of Heelo was an unforgettable experience and Kevin made it so much greater and more amusing than it was.
