ABOUT JEREMY
The corporate entrepreneur who became a CEO.
Jeremy Schwartz is the corporate entrepreneur who became a CEO. At Coca-Cola Europe he led the innovation team whose work created Coke Zero — today a $10bn+ brand. At Sainsbury's he turned discarded fruit and vegetables into a £150m business. Then he ran the companies: as CEO of Pandora he reversed declining sales and added €7bn in shareholder value in twenty months; he led L'Oréal UK and The Body Shop, orchestrating its $1bn sale to Natura.
He has delivered keynotes in 33 countries and is the author of Make More Money — A.C.T. F.A.S.T. His speeches do one thing: show your people how a real operator builds and grows — with ambition, conviction and expertise.

THE A.C.E. MOUNTAINS
Leadership tested at 6300m
Jeremy Schwartz does not just talk about ambition, conviction and expertise. He lives them at 6,000 metres. A serious high-altitude mountaineer, Jeremy has summited peaks across the Alps, the Himalayas and most recently the Peruvian Andes on a 2026 expedition. Mountaineering teaches what boardrooms cannot: how to set a goal that looks impossible, hold conviction when the weather turns, and execute with the craft and speed that survival demands. The same A.C.E. Growth Mindset™ that grew billion-dollar brands keeps him alive at altitude. Jeremy's keynotes bring that texture — leadership tested in thin air, not just in the boardroom.
