Host Alex Frukt

Everyone's gathered at the venue, the host steps out with a microphone — and half the room buries itself in their phones. Familiar. A corporate event that started as a good idea feels like a mandatory meeting with dinner by the middle. The problem usually isn't the people, but the format: the room wasn't offered anything they'd want to join in on themselves.

Alexander Sviridenko is a host and journalist from Saint Petersburg, working under the name Alex Frukt. He hosts corporate events, company openings, team building, sports events, anniversaries, and graduation parties. The core of his program is a multimedia game: from an intellectual quiz to a light TV show. Around it, show blocks are assembled: dance, music, improvisation, humor. According to his estimate, he writes about 70% of the programs himself, tailored to a specific company and occasion.

On site it looks like this: a screen, questions, teams at tables, score, excitement — and people who were just sitting quietly start arguing over the answer. His journalistic experience helps him keep the pace and hear the room: where to tease, where to slow down, where to give the floor to someone who usually stays silent. Show blocks are integrated into the game rather than performed as separate numbers, so the evening doesn't fall apart into pieces.
