Siramol Muan Onsri: Creativity as Soft Power on the Global Stage

St Margaret’s College alumna to feature at Thai Chamber of Commerce event in Bangkok

Siramol Muan Onsri, a proud alumna of St Margaret’s College, will take the stage as a keynote speaker at the upcoming TGINZ Business Networking – Soft Power Night, co-hosted by the New Zealand–Thai Chamber of Commerce (NZTCC) and the New Zealand Society Thailand. To be held on July 22 at Le Méridien Bangkok, the evening will explore how creativity and culture shape and influence today’s interconnected world.

Siramol’s journey is a global one. Born and raised in Thailand, she began her international education at St Margaret’s, before heading to New York City to study Product Design. Her career took her to Germany, where she made waves at adidas Headquarters as the only Thai — and the only female Asian — designer on the adidas Football team.

Blending her design background with a keen business acumen, Siramol has since transitioned into Thailand’s capital markets sector, where she applies creative thinking to solve complex challenges. Her experience across continents and industries has shaped her distinctive leadership style: bold, cross-disciplinary, and deeply human.

At the Soft Power Night, Siramol will join other leaders, diplomats, and creatives to discuss “Creativity as Soft Power,” exploring how ideas, innovation, and identity can shape diplomacy, commerce, and culture.

Her story is not just one of professional success, but a powerful example of the impact of a global education and the strength of the SMC alumnae network reaching every corner of the world.
