“Grainne Seoige was a brilliant choice for our event, for many reasons. Primarily, for her genuine earnestness and interest in the actual event. The Midlands Showcase event was a full day, filled with numerous panel discussions that she had to host, many were running one after the other.

This is where her professional broadcasting skills were in full flight. Her attention to detail and concentration levels had to be precise and they truly were. Panel discussions swung from Regenerative farming to Business investing to STEM education and she never dropped the ball. Even when there was an extra guest or when audiences weren’t paying full attention, she didn’t flinch.

Once she had time to prep and introduce the day, she didn’t need guidance. That to me is where a true professional shines. When you run an event, you really need someone to lead and keep it running smoothly and she did that.

She was also very kind to people and our team, which was another bonus.

I highly recommend her.” – Midlands Showcase Event, December 2025
