Nikki Dean is a highly experienced presenter, event host, and tech communicator, with over a decade of broadcast and live event experience across the globe. She has worked with some of the world’s most exciting technology brands and platforms, hosting for clients including Apple, Nvidia, Motorola and Samsung. Her particular passion lies in Artificial Intelligence and Consumer Tech, and her ability to make complex topics accessible, engaging, and entertaining is what sets her apart.
As a communicator who combines deep technical understanding with a lively, relatable presenting style, Nikki is a trusted voice in the world of innovation. She currently hosts and co-produces Inside AI, an online series focused on Artificial Intelligence, and also presents Next Level, an online gaming show. She contributes regularly to BBC content on tech topics, and recently completed a Deep Learning course to continue expanding her expertise. Nikki first rose to prominence as the resident Gadget Girl on BBC2’s Something for the Weekend, and her down-to-earth energy and wit have earned her a loyal following across both broadcast and live platforms.
In addition to her tech work, Nikki has made an exciting move into the public speaking and personal development space. After years of one-to-one coaching, she recently launched her flagship online programme: "The Bloody Brilliant Speaker". Based on a six-part method she developed to help people overcome fear and speak with impact, the programme has received incredible feedback and led to a string of well-received keynote talks delivered alongside her debut book, The Secret to Being a Bloody Brilliant Speaker! These sessions are fast becoming a hit with event organisers, corporate audiences, and leadership teams who want to boost confidence and communication skills.
Nikki’s presenting roots began in entertainment, where she spent six years as the Digital Presenter for Strictly Come Dancing, covering backstage stories and exclusive online content. She also anchored a live, daily three-hour breakfast show for two years for The Guardian Media Group, showcasing her adaptability across broadcast formats. Her career has continued to evolve through diverse projects such as Formula Woman, a motorsport competition designed to get more women behind the wheel in the GT Cup. Nikki didn’t just present the show, she trained and hit the track herself, gaining first-hand experience of life as a driver and connecting with a wide range of inspiring women aged 17 to 60 plus.
Today, Nikki continues to be a go-to presenter and host for product launches, tech events, and awards ceremonies. She is equally in demand as a keynote speaker and public speaking coach, combining her on-camera expertise with a deep passion for helping others communicate with confidence. Personable, professional, and passionate about empowering people to be their best on stage, Nikki is a natural choice for tech summits, leadership events, and communication-focused workshops. Whether you're looking for an expert host, engaging moderator, or a keynote speaker who can blend industry insight with practical tools and inspiring delivery, Nikki Dean is a brilliant and versatile choice.
