Moderator Cologne – for conferences, panels, trade fairs & galas

As a Moderator & Presenter I love events that connect people. Cologne offers the perfect stage for this: a vibrant economic region with strong companies from media, insurance, industry, trade and technology.

I am Franziska Zimmermann, Business & Event Moderator with over 20 years of stage and camera experience and at the same time more than 10 years as a specialist and manager in personnel and management consulting.

Exactly these Practical experience in the corporate world This makes all the difference for many of my clients. Communicating on equal terms with C-level executives, subject matter experts, scientists, politicians, or well-known media personalities doesn't leave me breathless, but I actually really enjoy it! 🙂

Whether Fair, congress, Panel discussion, Evening gala or Corporate Event: I moderate with in-depth content AND with the right amount of ease, charm and humor.

Because if there's one thing I don't like, it's boring events. Let others organize those! 🙂

for genuine enthusiasm

Moderator, sparring partner and brand ambassador all in one

For me, good moderation doesn't begin with the first sentence on stage!

As a moderator, I take a holistic approach to events – from content preparation and dramaturgy to audience engagement. Therefore, I see myself not only as a moderator, but often also as a sparring partner for event organizers, marketing teams, and agencies.

Upon request, I can support you in the run-up to your event in Cologne by recommending suitable speakers, developing discussion formats, or providing communication support for your event. My network within the German Speakers Association, as well as my experience from numerous conferences, trade fairs, and corporate events, allows me to contribute valuable insights.

Furthermore, I am available as Brand Face & Voice I regularly appear on camera and support companies in making their messages visible – be it through video formats, interviews, Social media content or the activation of my big LinkedIn network.

I particularly enjoy moderating events in the thematic areas surrounding... Business, Tech & AI, Finance, Insurance & Real Estate as well as Media & Tourism.

I moderate on German and English and accompany events ranging from small executive roundtables or exclusive fireside chats to large stages with several hundred or even thousands of guests.

Because in the end, it's not just about guiding people through a program. It's about reaching people, making content come alive, and creating events that leave a lasting impression!
