Over the past 30+ years, after leaving Sweden, Per Östberg has worked across Europe, Asia, and Africa in executive project director roles at multinational organisations, as a foresight consultant, and as a serial entrepreneur.

In a world where the future is increasingly uncertain, many individuals and organisations feel unsettled—torn between achieving short-term goals while preparing for multiple possible outcomes and disruptions. Per’s work is grounded in navigating this complexity with clarity and confidence.

His passion lies in translating emerging trends and future signals into practical, actionable scenarios. By doing so, he helps people and organisations identify their role and purpose within possible futures. This includes exploring what can be done today to remain relevant and prepared, while encouraging a shift in mindset toward curiosity, adaptability, and a strong can-do spirit.

Through his keynotes, Per challenges the audience’s “business-of-today” mindset. Audiences gain a clear understanding of the major forces shaping the future, while also experiencing foundational foresight thinking tools that can be applied immediately. His approach is both practical and thought-provoking, designed to move beyond theory into meaningful action.

Ultimately, his goal is simple: to ensure audiences leave thinking differently about the future—and feeling more capable of shaping it.
