Hi there, I'm a media-allrounder journalist (TV, print, online and audio) and a multilingual conference moderator (English, French, German, Italian and Dutch), based in Brussels, Belgium. During my 20+ years in the industry, I learned the tricks of the trade from scratch, starting as a local newspaper journalist and becoming 15 years later the Deputy Brussels Bureau Chief of the European current affairs TV network Euronews. 5 years ago I ventured into an exciting new life of freelance journalism. So do get in touch for: • Conference moderations (EU affairs, sustainability, economics, human rights and social questions) • Podcast production • Video production • Media training Also check my Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/obruns/
How to make the best of a very dry and ethically debatable subject (in the case the Eurasian Media Forum in Kazakhstan)? Chose the right angle, chose the best interviewees you can get, the right bits of creativity and tell a story that matters!
Ever heard of 'Quantum Politics'? Armenian President Armen Sarkissian, a former Cambridge physics professor has coined the term. Featuring alongside him: the former Ukrainian PM Yulia Tymoshenko and the former Catalan autonomy president Carles Puigdemont.
A conference moderation showreel: I moderate panels in English, German, French, Italian... - and a little Dutch. My main topics: EU affairs, sustainability, human rights, economy and social questions.
