Bear Grylls announced as closing speaker at Sibos 2022

Bear Grylls OBE, one of the most recognised faces of outdoor survival and a champion for sustainability, will be the closing keynote speaker at Sibos 2022.

A well-known British survivalist, television presenter and best-selling author, Grylls served in the British Special Forces and has since featured in successful TV series including “Running Wild with Bear Grylls”, taking guests such as Barack Obama and Narendra Modi on adventures into the wild.

Grylls will inspire the Sibos audience with his advice on remaining resilient to succeed in times of adversity. His experience navigating some of the harshest conditions in the world will serve as a lesson to us all as we tackle our own challenges as an industry.

Jaime Lee, Head of Sibos for SWIFT, said: “We’re really looking forward to having Bear Grylls as this year’s closing speaker and hearing his thoughts on how to succeed in uncertain times. Bear is a true champion for sustainability, a key theme for Sibos this year, and we’re sure he will serve as an inspiration to all Sibos participants to reduce our environmental impact and drive positive change in the industry and world around us.”
