FOBISIA Student Leadership Conference 2026

Rob Lilwall has spent the last two decades redefining what it means to explore the world—and the human spirit. As a National Geographic TV adventurer, he has journeyed over 50,000 km across some of the planet’s most challenging terrains, from cycling through Afghanistan to surviving -40°C in Siberia.

In his keynote, Rob brings these extraordinary experiences to life through captivating storytelling and interactive moments. More than tales of adventure, Rob shares the powerful mindset shifts that helped him thrive in the face of fear, uncertainty, and opportunity. He explores how embracing challenge, understanding fear, practicing self-care, and fostering collaboration are not just survival tools—but essential leadership skills in today’s fast-changing world.
