Petra Gargano

Petra Gargano is one of the most versatile performers and speakers of her generation. She began her career at 13 as the singer of the band Tiktak and grew up in the middle of huge popularity. After the band years she continued in music as a solo artist and songwriter, and she has also widened her work as an entrepreneur, a personal trainer, an influencer, and a master of chemistry from the University of Helsinki.

Petra's path has been anything but straight, and that is what makes her stories easy to recognise and energising. She has met stage fright, failure, and the difficulties of building a business, and every turn has been a new way to grow. She believes fear points to something that matters, and that facing failure can lead to the best insights.

Petra's talks are woven from her experience in the music world, from studio stages in Hollywood to the everyday life of a Finnish entrepreneur. The themes are courage, the ability to adapt, teamwork, and inspiration. She has a rare way of joining story and song: the audience hears pieces of familiar tracks, such as Sankaritar and Heilutaan, which make the point of the talk concrete.

In her newest concept Petra takes the combination further, adding a live band and full songs to the talk. The result is an event that is both inspiring and entertaining, a strong choice for company occasions, recreation days, and celebrations that want a real experience. Petra brings energy, positivity, and a message of encouragement: you can get through it, and everyone can find their own strength.
