2024 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony host - Lucy Porter
We’re pleased to announce that Lucy Porter will host our 2024 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, to be held at RIBA’s 66 Portland Place HQ in Central London on Thursday, 21st November.
Described as ‘charmingly effervescent’, Lucy is a comedian whose bright and friendly persona can win over any audience. With a disarmingly warm and chatty style, she delivers her thoughts and observations on life, love and how odd the world can be like a long-standing and sometimes indiscreet friend.
Lucy has gathered a strong following and excellent reputation on the live circuit, and her Edinburgh shows are invariably a sell-out. Also at Edinburgh and away from comedy, she starred alongside Christian Slater in the stage version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
A finalist on Channel 4’s So You Think You’re Funny?, she is a regular on Radio 4 panel and comedy shows, and has also appeared a number of times on Have I Got News For You and Mock the Week.
She has also appeared on Newsnight, The Culture Show, and Richard Osman's House of Games, and has written for Johnny Vaughan, Adam and Joe, and Jimmy Tarbuck.
Lucy is a keen amateur quizzer, having won Celebrity Mastermind and The Chase. She has also appeared on Impossible, Fifteen to One, The Weakest Link and Pointless, raising money for charities including Children in Need, the Loss Foundation and Carers UK.
She also presents the quizzing podcast Fingers on Buzzers alongside The Chase's Jenny Ryan.
Don’t delay, enter today!
The awards, sponsored by CADS, 3D Cloud, Brightpearl by Sage’s Lightning 50, Retail Technology Show 2025, and Business France, celebrate global tech innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
