Speaker Humour & Entertainment

"Emmelie is an amazing host and moderator! Emmelie is energetic and empathic, creating a great atmosphere with participants and the audience. It was a pleasure to cooperate with Emmelie, and I give my highest recommendation to any company looking for an outstanding event host and moderator."

"Emmelie is a highly appreciated, very professional, passionate and cheerful moderator. We worked together on the launch of the Expert Network for Key Enabling Methodologies (an initiative by CLICKNL as part of Dutch mission-driven national innovation policy). Prepare for some constructive criticism and useful tips when working with Emmelie. It will only improve the quality of your event!"

"Moreover, Emmelie co-moderated one of the panels and was curious on the topic herself, making it very authentic and engaging for both the public and the speakers she was introducing. Overall, a great professional, highly competent, amazing energy on stage. I recommend working with Emmelie as a presenter for any events big or small. Thank you Emmelie for joining us at our 2nd NL conference!"

"Emmelie is a wonderful moderator. She takes on every event with a personal touch. She's driven, flexible and truly great to work with. Even when you make last minute changes in a storyline or script on a Sunday at 20:00pm."

"Emmelie hosted the Amazon Academy 2020, virtual edition. She is a very professional moderator and host. With years of experience, she created the perfect dynamics during the virtual event. It was a very nice experience to work together!"

"Emmelie was the voice over of our Top 30 event and the host of the talk show we made as a team at the end of our Summit about our strategy. She was extremely well prepared and knew the right questions to ask. She connects with the audience very naturally, has a very charming and professional appearance, and knows exactly how to set the right tone to keep people interested. If the opportunity arises, I would love to ask her again for an upcoming event."

"Very many thanks for giving such an excellent and very funny speech at our Annual Diner on Friday.

You could tell from the audience reaction how much they enjoyed it and what a difference it made to the overall enjoyment of the ocassion."

"On December 10, 2009, the Dutch Central Bank organized a symposium in view of the introduction of Solvency 2; a new European framework for risk management within the insurance industry. The symposium was attended by 400 participants and key speakers from the European Commission, DNB, the Dutch Association of Insurers, from the industry and from the Ministry of Finance, gave their views. The end of the morning was filled in by Otto Wijnen who professionally fooled the entire room with an energy boost of the highest order in the form of a fake speech. It was unprecedented fun. In high tempo, with a lot of humor and by unexpected turns, the audience was confronted with the past of insurers and the need for change. After about 25 minutes, the audience collectively sang a tune at the top of their voices provided by Otto. His presentation was followed by thunderous applause as proof of his skill as an entertainer."

"As organizer of the jubilee congress 60 years Radboudumc Dentistry on May 20, 2022 at the Stadsschouwburg Nijmegen, I asked Otto Wijnen to provide a playful contribution in the form of a fake speech. Afterwards I received nothing but fantastic feedback about his presentation! It was really great.
Many thanks to Otto for his contribution to this super fun day!"

"On behalf of the colleagues of the merchant bank, I would like to thank you for your participation in our offsite. Your presentation was to say the least different from the others. All agreed that it was very funny and a great way to end the formal part of the preceedings. Laughter and humour is a great bonder and that is something you clearly achieved. We will all remember some joke or quip. Please feel free to use NIBC as a reference for your future speaking requests. Once again congratulations for the excellent performance."
