[VIRTUAL EMCEES OR HOSTS]
With more conferences going online the top virtual MCs and hosts have never been more in-demand but selecting the right one can be a challenge.

Done well, virtual meetings and events can be a highly effective way to inspire, educate and entertain your employees, clients, and partners. However, too many virtual events are dull and deliver a low return on your investment in terms of time and money.

Why not invite top virtual emcees and hosts Alison Burns & James Taylor (AKA The Ethical Futurists™) to co-host your virtual event. Alison Burns has hosted for broadcasters including the BBC and Channel 4, as well as acting as MC and host for both live in-person and virtual events.

Together they have hosted intimate virtual events for 50 people all the way through to large multi-speaker virtual and hybrid conferences for tens of thousands.
