Biography

Rosanna Lockwood is a British television presenter and international journalist with significant experience anchoring prime-time news and interview shows for major networks across Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Currently based in Dubai, Rosanna travels widely for broadcast and live event projects.

Previously, Rosanna hosted her own daily interview show ‘Prime Time with Rosanna Lockwood’, providing a high-impact forum for analysis and debate on major stories in the UK and around the world, live on television and online every weeknight from the News UK studios in London. She was also Piers Morgan’s trusted stand-in for his flagship debate show ‘Piers Morgan Uncensored’.

Prior to this, Rosanna was with CNBC International, anchoring Squawk Box and Street Signs programming in London and Singapore, alongside providing European markets reporting for CNBC U.S., MSNBC and the wider NBC network. She has also presented long-form episodes of CNBC’s The Edge and Inside E-Commerce. Her core topics include economics and geopolitics.

An experienced journalist, Rosanna began her news career as a reporter and producer for the BBC, Bloomberg TV, LBC and ITN. As a correspondent, she later covered Middle East stock markets from the Reuters bureau in Dubai, and reported live from Downing Street in London, and onboard an aircraft carrier in the Singapore Strait for CNBC. She has also fronted the launch of various start-ups, including the expansion of Al Arabiya English from Dubai, and the launch of Talk TV in the UK.

Rosanna has interviewed world leaders, central bank governors, and CEOs, and her prowess in the field of business and finance has made her a popular MC, chairperson, and panel moderator, for live events around the world. She has delivered on-stage discussions with Nobel Prize-winning scientists, best-selling authors, and senior bankers at major conferences and summits in London, Paris, New York, Cairo, Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Singapore and more. She has also filmed and hosted projects in conjunction with the UN’s Climate Change Conference (COP) and the World Economic Forum (WEF).

“Rosanna expertly moderated our high-level virtual event, which focused on health and development, featured a range of VIP speakers, and required a great bit of stamina. Rosanna was a quick study on the subject matter, facilitated the conversation in a smooth, natural manner, and handled a few programming curveballs thrown her way like a seasoned pro. She was well-prepared, polite, and professional. I can wholeheartedly recommend.” Jonathan Hoffmann, Project Syndicate
