Katariina Kravi, the Executive Vice President of People and Communication at Stora Enso, has announced she will be leaving the company at the end of 2025 to pursue a new opportunity outside the organization. Kravi, who has held her current role and served as a member of the Group Leadership Team since 2020, will depart after making significant contributions to Stora Enso’s strategy and people development.
Hans Sohlström, President and CEO of Stora Enso, expressed his gratitude for Katariina’s impactful work: “I would like to warmly thank Katariina for her excellent contribution to Stora Enso’s strategy and people development. She has played an integral role in transforming Stora Enso into the leading renewable materials company. On behalf of Stora Enso, I wish her all the best in her new position.”
The company has initiated the search for a successor to Katariina, with the process set to begin immediately. As a leading supplier of renewable products in packaging, biomaterials, and timber construction, Stora Enso is committed to driving the shift toward a circular bioeconomy, developing sustainable solutions for industries worldwide.

“Whatever is done now with fossil fuels may be made tomorrow with a tree,” is Stora Enso’s vision, underscoring its commitment to using renewable resources. As a market leader in biomaterials, building materials, and packaging, Stora Enso continues to innovate and support the shift toward more sustainable, low-carbon solutions.
