Biography

David Eades has been described as ‘one of the most familiar faces in global tv news’. Over three decades he covered many of the biggest news stories of our time, as wide-ranging as the death of Princess Diana, to the Peace Process in Northern Ireland, the launch of the Euro, Brexit, plus major sporting scandals, FIFA World Cups and Olympic Games.

As a mainstream anchor, he also created ‘Climate Critical’ – BBC World’s only show dedicated to climate issues. Now David has become a highly accomplished MC and moderator, focussing on issues around our climate and the Green Transition. He also specialises in sport; over 15 years he has built the programmes for the SportAccord Sport and Business Summit, and hosted events for governing bodies such as UEFA, the IOC, and various news organisations.

David also offers inspirational speeches on how to manage -and thrive – under pressure. A fluent French and German speaker, as well as a keen golfer and cyclist, David chairs the charity, Sport at the Service of Humanity, and is Vice President of the International Masters Games Association .

“David is a consummate professional, always well-prepared, and able to draw out the best from every panel or interview he moderates. His journalistic drive and curiosity are apparent in his thought-provoking questions, while his warm and friendly demeanour puts both panelists and audience members at ease.” Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Chairman of the Kyiv Security Forum, Prime Minister of Ukraine in 2014-16
“When a conference agenda has high profile VIPs and C suite contributors, it certainly helps to have someone with David’s experience and skills, honed at the BBC, and a badge of quality and reassurance. Whether it is 1-2-1’s with high profile CEOs or complex panel sessions, I would thoroughly recommend David to draw the very best out of any speaker.” Andrew Mullins CEO Informa Connect
“David is an extremely professional and eloquent Master of Ceremonies who has an innate ability to effortlessly captivate his audience, and the way he adeptly draws upon the latest industry trends and opportunities throughout his speaking points is a testament to the strength of his knowledge and insights in current affairs and the sporting world. He is highly engaging with a wonderful sense of humour, and is able to form deep connections with speakers from diverse backgrounds within a very short span of time. We have consistently received excellent feedback regarding David’s work from conference delegates and speakers at each Asian Racing Conference.“ Andrew Harding Secretary General, Asian Racing Federation
