Who is Priscilla Hennekam?
Priscilla Hennekam is a Brazilian-Australian strategist and communicator, widely recognized as one of the most authentic and forward-thinking voices in today’s wine industry. She is the founder of Hennekam Wine Consultancy and the driving force behind the global movement Rethinking the Wine Industry, where she works at the intersection of culture, consumer behavior, and business transformation.
With international experience and a deeply human approach, Priscilla brings a fresh perspective to an industry often bound by tradition. She challenges outdated models and invites wine professionals to reconnect with what truly matters: PEOPLE.
Her energy is defined by courage, empathy, and clarity. Rather than following scripts, she champions connection, storytelling, and experiences that create lasting value. Whether leading industry debates, giving keynote talks, or producing content for her platform Vino Visionaries, Priscilla inspires others to think beyond the bottle and act with greater awareness.
More than talking about wine, she speaks about change, about seeing wine as a bridge between people and cultures, not just a product. Her work is a call to rethink, rebuild, and create a more inclusive, human-centered, and connected future for the wine world.
