Geoff Bryan - Gold Elite Speaker
With over 30 years experience in radio and television, Geoff Bryan is best known as a long-standing sports broadcaster.
A graduate of Victoria University in politics and history, he succumbed to a youthful desire to play rock music for a living with 2ZM in Wellington before moving to TVNZ in 1982.
Since then, he has been lucky enough to travel the world to major sporting events. He has covered eight Olympic Games – a mixture of Summer and Winter games and in 2008, he spent seven weeks in China for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
He has covered five Commonwealth Games, numerous Rugby, Cricket and Football World Cups and a wide variety of other sports at top level.
Currently, he hosts the Sunday afternoon motorsport show on TVONE, which is the only weekly sports show produced by TVNZ .
He has seen many changes in sport and the way it has been presented through the media, but the heart of his job remains being able to relate to the viewer and draw them in, and add value, to what they are watching.
Most recently Geoff was sent to South Africa to cover the FIFA World Cup and follow the All White’s progress. His trip wasn’t as long as he would have liked but had very interesting experiences over there and saw behind the scenes action. He is very keen to share these stories.
Geoff is a polished MC to suit all occasions and audiences.
