Testimonials for Col Cameron
Hi Col,
I wanted to reach out and thank you for stepping in as the MC for our event on such short notice. Your willingness to help out and your exceptional performance truly made the event a great success. We have had such great feedback. You managed the flow of the program seamlessly and kept the energy high throughout the event. We received numerous compliments from attendees who were impressed by you and enjoyed the event even more because of your presence. We understand the challenge of taking on such a role last minute, and we are incredibly grateful for your flexibility and dedication. Your contribution was invaluable, and we couldn't have asked for a better MC to lead the event.
Thank you once again and we look forward to the possibility of working with you again in the future.
Jessica Tomic Event Specialist, Marketing QBE
Thank you, Col, for helping to make our Business Managers Victoria (BMV) Annual Conference such a huge success. This was our first year to engage an MC for our event and your humour, quick wit, engagement and relationship building with our members along with the consistent messaging to delegates meant it was overwhelming accepted as a great initiative. BMV would wholeheartedly highly recommend Col as your MC for your events to allow organisers to relax and enjoy the program. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
Tracey Smith - Business Managers Victoria – President
Col was our MC for our Arc de Triomphe x Flemington Gala, organised by the French-Australian Chamber of Commerce, in November 2022, and was the best MC I could ever dream of. Not only because he has a French background that fits perfectly with what we wanted to implement, but also because he has this amazing attention to detail that will ensure your event goes smoothly. Our guests loved him, and some of our members are still talking to me about him and about his wonderful performance. Col is just so amazing to work with and will always find a solution when there is a problem. Our Gala would not have been that successful if it was not for him. Can't recommend him enough.
Paul Moing – FACCI (French Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry) - Head of Vic Chapter
Col was our MC for the staff conference a few months ago, and I have to say, he was simply outstanding. After the conference, we conducted a survey to find out what stood out to our staff, and Col was in the top three highlights. I highly recommend Col—not just as a funny and reliable MC, but as someone who puts his heart into what he does. He has a unique ability to connect the business with its people, making himself an integral part of the experience. Thank you, Col. We can't wait to see you again at our next conference. You truly make a difference!

Speaking Topics Include
Team Building, Ice Breakers & Conference Energisers
Nobody ever says, "I hope this conference is awkward." Yet every year thousands of delegates walk into conference rooms full of complete strangers wondering where to sit, who to talk to and whether they'll survive another name badge and hard chair.
That's where I come in. I love helping groups relax, connect and have some fun from the very start. With a background in stand-up comedy, improv and corporate entertainment, I can't help but bring the laughs. In fact, it's not unusual for me to have a room full of laughing people within the first five minutes of the day.
Whether it's a fast-paced ice breaker, a get-to-know-you activity, a group challenge or a conference energiser, my goal is simple: help people feel comfortable enough to participate, learn and enjoy the experience.
After more than 30 years as an entertainer, MC and facilitator, I've built up a huge toolkit of activities that can work with almost any audience. Sometimes I'll arrive armed with props such as yo-yos, paper clips, balls or mystery objects. Other times I need nothing more than the people in the room. Anyone for a giant game of Rock, Paper, Scissors?
Brain Teasers & Team Building Activities
Give a group a challenge, a few random objects and a ticking clock and something magical happens. Suddenly complete strangers are sharing ideas, laughing, encouraging each other and desperately trying to avoid coming last. I love using brain teasers, construction challenges and problem-solving activities to get people interacting early in an event. They're fun, memorable and often reveal hidden talents within the group. Who knew the quiet person from Accounts was secretly an engineering genius?
Ice Breakers
One of the biggest opportunities at any conference is sitting right in front of you. The people at your table often have experiences, ideas and connections that can be just as valuable as what's happening on stage. That's why I love helping delegates relax, have a laugh and get to know each other early in the event.
