“I am not usually a burning bra’s kind of person and I didn’t know what to expect. Julia was so good as an MC and made it really fun and got the crowd going which was great.”

“We are so grateful to Julia for her support of Dreams Come True. She was simply brilliant as mc at our inaugural gala fundraising event. In the run up, she was thoughtful and thorough in her preparation, which meant that, on the night Julia performed her MC role brilliantly. Julia’s ‘crowd control’ was excellent and she expertly held the audience throughout the night despite all that was going on to distract them from the important business of donating money. She managed this with just the right balance of humour and pathos.”

“Julia hosted a number of sessions at the Fixed Income Leaders’ Summit and other capital markets conferences  for many years now. She is always energetic, thoroughly professional, moved topics along and most importantly, runs things smoothly, in order to keep to time.  Julia is a FinTech Evangelist and her entrepreneurial experience and expertise as well as capital markets knowledge shine through all her sessions.”  

“Julia hosted Banking Technology Awards in December 2016 in London. Her energy, professionalism and witty observations kept the audience engaged throughout the event and ensured the ceremony ran smoothly and on time. Our guests and the Banking Technology team had an enjoyable and memorable night – it was a success from start to finish. Thank you, Julia! “

“I just wanted to say a huge thank you again for speaking last night at the Securities Industry Management Association NextGEN event.  The anecdotal feedback has been great, everyone I spoke to thought you were fantastic and I think you provided a really good overview of the technology trends impacting the financial services industry.  Thank you.”

“We invited Julia Streets to moderate our 5th annual Tech Talk event held in London at Level 39, Canary Wharf.   Tech Talk is a thought leadership event hosted by CME Group to facilitate a dialogue between financial market participants and trending technology companies. We were thrilled to have Julia managing the stage with a mix of professionalism, charm and wit which enriched the experience for the 200 person live audience.  As a direct result of years spent in the financial technology sector, she was able provide follow-up commentary and insightful questions to ensure the speakers were well framed and the audience was appropriately engaged.   As Julia is multi-dimensional, by day a professional in finance and by night a comedian, we invited her to entertain at the private dinner following Tech Talk, hosting both the event speakers and CME guests with her comedic act.    She had the 50 person audience roaring with laughter and wanting more after a 15 minute set.  Julia is a consummate professional, highly engaging within a diverse audience and such a delightful woman.”

“Julia was an amazing host and auctioneer. In preparation she was committed and did her homework – and all this paid off as from the moment she raised her gavel on the first lot, she was eminently competent, and straight-away had the confidence of the room. But more than this, she was hugely fun, and made the auction an incredibly lively and high energy experience which was great for bidding and meant we exceeded our auction target. Guests left with a very positive sense of the night, and of our charity Little Paper Slipper. Thank you Julia.”

“Thank you so much for making our Women in Banking and Finance Awards for Achievement Luncheon go with a bang! We really appreciated how you kept us on schedule. We have had many Luncheon guests tell us that it was the best Awards Luncheon yet, and we know that this is down to your contribution in bringing professional polish to the programme of the day.”

“Julia gave both an illuminating and interesting talk, laced with her own wry humour, much of it in verse. An asset to any meal requiring an after dinner speaker.”

“Julia spoke at the end of our one-day annual conference – it had been a busy day packed with lots of different speakers and Julia stood out. She really lifted the mood and energy in the conference audience and raised a lot of laughs which was a great note for us to finish the event on. Her business and entrepreneurial anecdotes worked well for our attendees and I would absolutely recommend her for future events.”

“At the 2015 Sibos conference in Singapore we held a unique session…a pop quiz show!  Featuring teams of academics and bankers from around the world, and modelled on A Question of Sport, this was sure to be a fun-filled event (sic).  Our first call to host the show was Julia, and she did not disappoint.  It was a spectacular success!  Julia created the format, rules and questions for the show, and even bought herself a sparkly black jacket to wear on stage…very chic.  Her easy going manner and witty asides had both contestants and audience amused and entertained throughout the show.  Her professionalism and in-depth preparation leading up to the event were second to none, and then seeing the results on stage…well, that’s where she really shines.  Hold on to the sparkly jacket Julia; you’re going to need it when I call you back to Sibos!”

“There are comedy classes you can take but they don’t work.  You have to be born with it.   There’s no doubt that Julia was.   She doesn’t just say funny stuff, she is funny.   And what’s annoying is that comedy isn’t even her day-job.  She’s far too well-rounded, running her own business and being a trustee for a charity to be a full time comedy person…Ah well. At least there’s some work left for the rest of us.”

“Julia is a successful business-woman, a very good comedian, and an all-round indispensable trustee. In all my time, working for charities, serving on boards of trustees and working in partnership with governments, companies and other organisations, I have never come across anyone as inspiring, committed and high-performing as a trustee than Julia Streets.”

“Julia was the closing speaker for the Marketing Week 2015 Start Up Britain event, blending her marketing and communications experience with an entertaining conclusion to the day. She explored several elements of business and wrapped this up in comedy; leaving the audience laughing, yet thoroughly inspired.”

“I have had the pleasure of performing with Julia on a number of occasions.  As a fellow entrepreneur and business woman, Julia has a lot to say about business that is worth listening to, and more to the point is downright funny. She invariably inspires peals of laughter in every audience she entertains.”

“For the past five years, Julia Streets has been the auctioneer at all of our fundraising dinners.  She was spontaneous, funny and never took her eye off the business in hand, which was to raise funds for the British American Project.  Her quick wit, charm and a keen eye helped us to raise funds that always exceeds our expectations. Thank you, Julia.”                                                                              

“Julia was one of a two-act show, performing at a fundraiser for the Royal Hospital of Chelsea.  Julia’s act really appealed to the Friends of the Royal Hospital of Chelsea, due to her sharp delivery and funny songs.  It was all delivered in a way that truly resonated with every member of the audience.”

“With a blend of industry insight and corporate experience, combined with delivery that can captivate a mixed audience with young and more mature alumni; Julia delivered an inspiring talk.  This set our summer reception off to a swinging start.”

“There is no-one quite like Julia Streets.  Julia is a complete breath of fresh air – wonderfully different, hugely versatile, flipping funny and she definitely knows her subjects – business and comedy.  I am in the process of engineering an event purely so Julia can speak at it.”

“Recovered idiom abuser Julia Streets guides you laughing, gasping and weeping through the maze of corporate gobbledygook. This timely gem is required reading for anyone who has ever wanted to run amok with an axe when they hear the words blue sky thinking.”
