I’m Nikita Rana, a corporate emcee in mumbai, and this reflection comes from HP and Microsoft presents Reimagine, curated by CyberMedia Research, held at Sofitel, Mumbai. The audience comprised senior technology leaders and enterprise decision makers, and the tone required precision without stiffness. As a corporate host, my role was to hold attention while introducing complex ideas in a way that felt accessible and engaging.

The on stage conversation with Mr. Kunal Pande, Partner at KPMG India, revolved around the evolving workforce, generative AI, and how technology is reshaping organisational thinking. Humor became an effective bridge, used deliberately to humanise advanced concepts like humanoid AI and automation. Anchoring corporate event dialogues of this nature requires an understanding of when to add levity and when to step back and let insight land.

What stood out was the audience response to analogy driven storytelling. References to humanoid intelligence, cultural context, and future readiness created moments of shared understanding rather than passive listening. As an anchor in mumbai, my focus stayed on sequencing, ensuring each idea built logically on the previous one while maintaining energy in the room. This is the craft behind corporate event anchoring, where clarity is designed, not accidental.

My sincere thanks to Mr. Saurabh Pandey, Head of Marketing at HP, Mr. Anil Chopra, Vice President Research and Consulting at CyberMedia Research, and Mr. Bijeet Guha, General Manager Marketing and Special Events, for the trust and collaboration that allowed the stage to function seamlessly. Alignment behind the scenes is what enables confidence on stage.

If you are looking to hire anchor for event formats that combine technology, leadership, and large scale audiences, this is the approach I bring as a professional emcee, structured, responsive, and attuned to the room.
