Rebecca Freitag
Rebecca Freitag is a sustainability expert, future architect, voice of the youth, guardian for future generations and political entrepreneur. Rethinking entrepreneurship, society and politics is her theme. As a former UN youth delegate and sought-after speaker, Rebecca knows the world’s big stages. She is also a welcome guest at small discussion groups in companies, schools and organisations.
She asks herself and the people she talks to: How is real sustainability to be understood? Where do we have blind spots? What levers can companies in particular use to remain viable on the market and to implement effective sustainability – beyond greenwashing? Have we underestimated the sustainability needs of our customers?

Rebecca Freitag’s commitment to sustainable issues began in 2012. At that time, as a bicycle activist, she contributed to the success of the bicycle referendum, which resulted in the first mobility law. Her conviction that transformation must happen from all sides makes her not only a political entrepreneur, but also a connoisseur of sustainable business models.
Rebecca Freitag founded the Global Impact Alliance, an association of “purpose-driven” companies that are already exemplifying solutions. Rebecca Freitag has advocated for the implementation of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in various institutions. From the German Bundesbank, to ministries, innovation congresses, companies and workshops at youth camps, she has inspired people for a sustainable future.
As a sought-after advocate for younger generations, Rebecca Freitag takes a young critical perspective on future issues and shares trends, perspectives and opportunities from the perspective of the young global generation.
She produced a podcast on renewable energy, creates a climate game and works as an ambassador for the rights of future generations on a project to institutionalise these rights politically.
