MORE ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Kamilla Sultanova is a passionate advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), with an innate gift for bridging cultures and fostering belonging. A multilingual expert fluent in Danish and Finnish, she has embraced the Nordic “joy de vivre,” hygge, and even its dark humor, turning challenges into resilience.

Curious about why she connects where others struggle, Kamilla has explored how relationships flourish across industries from shipping to chemicals, and how corporate dynamics differ from startup culture. Her lifelong need to adapt to new environments became her superpower, transforming inclusivity into a strength she now wields as a DEI trainer, cultural gardener with local communities, and event host.

An award-winning speaker with experience engaging everyone from presidents to startups, Kamilla inspires change by turning diversity into a strategic advantage. Returning to the TEDx stage, her new talk, “How to Build Relationships in the Age of AI Bias: Effective Engagement Beyond Charisma,” reveals her recipe for creating genuine connections in an increasingly digital world. Kamilla’s story challenges us to rethink how we connect and grow, fostering meaningful engagement and belonging for all.
