* Your event extremely professionally hosted with a personal touch. * A host who inspires confidence in your speakers, is adroit, can lead panels, has specific expertise in the field of technology and innovation as well as being a psychologist and mediator.
* One word is enough for you because I have over 15 years of experience as an event organizer and know exactly what is needed from a host. Someone who thinks along and makes your event even more special.
* An experienced presenter who has been on a TEDx stage four times.
* Bilingual, English and Dutch
* Certainly available for events that last shorter or longer, for example 2 hours or 1 or 2 days.
In 2011, I graduated as a psychologist from the VU University of Amsterdam.
However, my first jobs were organizing two international events in Qatar and Israel.
Then I was asked to expand the Dutch company Dopper (the reusable water bottle) to America.
I moved to San Francisco for 3 years, worked in the middle of Silicon Valley and gained enormous experience in international entrepreneurship.
Back in the Netherlands, I was at the beginning of the startup ecosystem in the Netherlands (StartupDelta with Neelie Kroes, later Techleap with Constantijn van Oranje) and have spent the past 10+ years in all kinds of roles in tech, deeptech, around innovation, in public-private partnerships, and as an entrepreneur.
The love for psychology has always remained and is reflected
in my work as a mediator and facilitator of organizational and family constellations.
My hosting style is very personal. By this I mean that I like to connect with the speakers I introduce in advance, and really give them a stage even before they take a podium.
One client said "She is a brilliant host on stage because she conducts thorough preparation beforehand and uses her research to create wonderful, concise and original introductions to place the next speaker in the proper context."
I look forward to hearing more about your event. Please feel free to contact me to get acquainted.
See you soon!

Irene was moderator at our Holst Centre Innovation Day this year. We enjoyed working with her very much. Irene prepares well, thinks along, has humour, is enthusiastic and professional. A real added value to have her as moderator! (via LinkedIn)

As an international event producer and director, I can highly recommend involving Irene Rompa to ensure your event is a resounding success. She is masterful at steering the discourse in a room around such diverse deep-tech subjects as quantum, integrated photonics, MedTech and next-gen electronics manufacturing. She is a brilliant host on stage because she conducts thorough preparation beforehand and uses her research to create wonderful, concise and original introductions to place the next speaker in the proper context. She possesses a rare knack for "reading the room" in an instant and leverages this insight to extract the best from every contributor in the room. She inspires confidence in other speakers, adds unexpected context to the meeting and can drive the conversation effortlessly at the required pace to ensure everyone's engaged. In my experience, all this is very easy to do badly but EXTREMELY difficult to do well. Irene excels in this every time, always with an authentic smile. Hire her with confidence. You won't be disappointed! (via LinkedIn)

I have worked with Irene on several events for Superconnectors. Irene is a superb Moderator that goes way way further than someone that walks on stage and just presents. Irene is extremely involved in every aspect of the event. Who are the people presenting? what is their story? what will the technical set up be? will it look good enough? Irene has an amazing ability to keep an audience engaged, and go from intimate and personal to very loose and fun. I would recommend Irene to anyone that is thinking of organising a very professional event and that is truly looking for a top moderator that can deal with any caliber of speaker. (via LinkedIn)

Irene is natural communicator, great moderator and all out lovely person to work with. She nailed the moderator role at our first ever BOLD community event, where she combined story telling with professional moderation, full of humor, energy and humility. (via LinkedIn)

At the end of 2021, iL Office organised a live event on the Future of the Office. For this, we needed a host who could interview our guests and add depth to the topic. We are very happy that we asked Irene to do this for us. She prepared very well and immersed herself in the topic. Thanks to her way of presenting, putting the guests at ease and the sharp questions she asked, the conversation really got going. We had a successful event that we look back on with pride. For the next event, we will definitely ask Irene again! (via LinkedIn)
