It was a pleasure having you as host of the ‘International Brilliance Awards 2025’ at The Sheraton Grand in Park Lane. Your professionalism and charisma were evident from the moment you took the stage, bringing an infectious energy that kept the entire event flowing seamlessly. Your ability to connect with the audience and maintain an engaging atmosphere made the evening memorable for all attendees and played a key role in making the evening a success…
Mark has acted as Master of Ceremonies / Compère at several of our ‘European Contactless Technology Awards’ shows. I have found him to be personable, funny, entertaining, and professional. More than that, he can work the room and keep the show running smoothly and on time. I would thoroughly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a professional compère for their event.
