Your business moderator – directly from corporate practice
“Never invest in a business model you don’t understand.” – Warren Buffet
Understand. Classify. Communicate.
That's exactly what I strive for as a business presenter. Because business topics require more than just a good voice—they require expertise, context, and attitude.
I am Franziska Zimmermann – Business moderator with over 15 years of experience in the private sector.
Schon in meiner Zeit als Headhunterin und später als Head of Business Development in einer führenden Unternehmensberatung habe ich hundreds of companies accompanied – by Tech start-up, above SMEs, Ministries, Private equity firms up to DAX group.
I have firsthand experience of decision-making processes, have advised subject matter experts, CFOs, and management teams – and know what makes organizations large and small tick.
Bereits damals habe ich Workshops, Webinare, Kunden- und Mitarbeiterevents moderiert.
Heute bringe ich all diese Erfahrung und ganz viel Leidenschaft als full-time business & economic moderator to your event – factual, clear, but never dry!
Topics I cover as a business moderator
Finance, FinTech, Capital Markets and Real Estate
Many of the topics I moderate today are topics I have followed and experienced firsthand over the years during my time in business.
As a headhunter and later as Business Development-Verantwortliche in one on Finance & Accounting, Data & Digitalization and M&A As a specialized management consultancy, I was closely involved in transformation processes in a wide variety of industries, from automotive to mechanical engineering to payment service providers.
Meine Fokusthemen:
AI, Tech & Innovation
ESG, Sustainability & Regulatory
New Leadership, Cultural Change & Organizational Development
Economic policy influences & social trends
I prepare thoroughly on the topic, bring background knowledge with me – and ask the right questions to conduct events in a well-founded and lively manner.
Why work with me as a business moderator?
I am not a talking doll with a presentation card, but a thinking partner at eye level.
I analyze, structure, prepare content specifically for – and moderate in such a way that even complex content becomes understandable, accessible and relevant.
Mit meinem Unternehmens- & Wirtschaftshintergrund sowie einem guten Feeling for people I bring expertise and passion to the stage.
I keep the thread, provide orientation and love to change perspectives – for myself and for others.
