EVENT MODERATOR & HOST FRANZISKA ZIMMERMANN

I am Franziska Zimmermann — event moderator, host and passionate communicator for brands, people and live experiences.

Clients appreciate my positive energy, authentic presence and ability to connect with audiences naturally.

As a former Head of Business Development Having worked for a renowned management consultancy in the fields of finance, digitalization, accounting and M&A, I am familiar with the requirements of modern events from the world of business, strategies and transformation.

For more than 20 years, I have been on stage and in front of the camera — today moderating live events, conferences, panels, galas, award ceremonies and digital formats.

With me, you do not get someone simply reading from cue cards, but a thoughtful partner — bringing presence, personality and a genuine feel for impactful moderation.

Based in Stuttgart, I regularly moderate events across Germany — especially in Munich, Frankfurt, Düsseldorf, Dresden, Berlin and Hanover — and wherever you need me. Across Germany and internationally.

SMART MODERATION WITH EMPATHY AND STRUCTURE

Moderation

GREAT MODERATION IS LIKE GREAT SERVICE IN A RESTAURANT:

The focus is not on the service itself — but on the experience, the atmosphere and the guests.

Great moderation creates structure, timing and connection — subtle, but essential. And just like at a great event: if it’s missing, people notice immediately.

That’s why professional moderation makes all the difference.
