Mark Barton

Mark Barton is a superb and highly experienced live in-person and  virtual conference host. Mark is a journalist and media trainer. He’s supremely qualified to chair conference panels on business, financial markets, politics, environment, sport, and social issues. From 1995 to 2018 Mark was news anchor at Bloomberg TV and hosted Countdown, First Word On Money, and European Market Report.

Of his time at Bloomberg he says ‘I woke up at 02.07 am every day for five and a half years’. It’s the one sentence always gets the biggest reaction when Mark talks about his twenty-three year career as a television news anchor and business journalist at Bloomberg.

He’s says that coming in a distant second is the fact that he has analysed the biggest global business, financial market and geopolitical events of the past two decades and conducted more than twenty-thousand interviews with world leaders, finance ministers, central bankers and chief executives. Seven minutes two – that’s how powerful a human story can be!
