Sanna Marin

Former Prime Minister of Finland, Strategic Advisor & Global Authority on Crisis Leadership

Sanna Marin, former Prime Minister of Finland, when delivering keynotes for 92 Speakers on democratic values, technological sovereignty, and the 2026 geopolitical landscape.

Sanna Marin is a globally recognised leader who governed at the intersection of generational change and geopolitical rupture. As the former Prime Minister of Finland, she led one of Europe’s most strategically exposed nations through the pandemic and oversaw a historic shift in defence posture with Finland’s NATO accession.

When appearing on the global stage, Sanna deconstructs her "Normality Bias" thesis, proving that crisis leadership requires looking at the world as it is, not as we wish it to be.

She assists global organisations in navigating strategic autonomy, utilising her experience in coalition governance to help boards synchronise innovation with democratic values. By reframing modern power as a balance of resilience and legitimacy, she transforms institutional pressure into a measurable driver of organisational agility.

For leaders navigating uncertainty and the demands of high-stakes decision-making, Sanna provides a sophisticated roadmap for acting decisively when the consequences are irreversible.
