Anne Applebaum
Pulitzer Prize-winning Historian and Expert on Global Geopolitics
Finance & Economics · Education
Economics, finance and geopolitics speakers booked for Education conferences need to translate global signals — rates, inflation, geopolitical risk, capital flows — into the specific implications your Education audience cares about. The shortlist below is filtered to speakers who can do that translation cleanly, not just deliver a generic macro briefing.
Look for speakers who frame their argument as a forecast you can act on, not a tour of recent headlines. A senior Education audience will want to leave with a clear point of view, not five hands.
