Marco Buschmann: The voice for the rule of law, freedom and the future

22. October 2025 – Katharina Schlangenotto

“Freedom is not a given. It needs people who defend, explain, and live it.”

With this credo, Marco Buschmann has established himself as one of the defining voices of contemporary Germany. The lawyer and former Federal Minister of Justice is known for his clarity of language, his analytical thinking, and his ability to make complex issues understandable. As a keynote speaker, he talks about the rule of law, civil liberties, democracy, and the future of the digital age.

A path shaped by language and law

Born in Gelsenkirchen in 1977, Buschmann studied law at the Ruhr University in Bochum. From an early age, he was fascinated by the interplay of language, logic, and social rules – a passion that has never left him.

After passing his second state law examination, he initially worked as a research assistant and lawyer. His legal training and rhetorical precision continue to form the foundation of his public appearances to this day. “Language is the central tool of freedom,” Buschmann repeatedly emphasizes – and it is precisely this tool that he has mastered.

The rule of law and freedom as a compass

As former Federal Minister of Justice, Marco Buschmann stands for a clear set of values: the protection of the rule of law and individual freedom. He addresses these issues not only politically, but also socially – as a task for society as a whole.

In his speeches, he often points out that freedom must be actively shaped: A strong rule of law protects not only laws, but also the dignity and self-determination of each individual.

His legal background enables him to contextualize issues, resolve misunderstandings, and open up new perspectives.

Marco Buschmann discusses topics that will shape the future

As a keynote speaker, Buschmann focuses on key issues of the present and future:

  • The rule of law and democracy: Why these foundations cannot be taken for granted—and how they can be strengthened.
  • Freedom in the digital age: How civil liberties are being redefined under the conditions of AI, big data, and algorithms.
  • Trust in institutions: Why open communication is crucial for social cohesion.
  • Language and rhetoric: How words can not only inform, but also shape.

He presents these topics precisely, comprehensibly, and with a rhetorical elegance that makes him a sought-after speaker.

A voice with charisma

Marco Buschmann is considered one of the most prominent speakers in Berlin’s political scene – but his influence extends far beyond the world of politics. He knows how to translate abstract principles such as freedom, responsibility, and the rule of law into tangible images.

His appearances are characterized by clear argumentation, often combined with concise formulations such as: A constitutional state shows its strength not when it shouts, but when it protects.”

This ability to make complex content accessible and at the same time pointed makes him a particularly valuable speaker for companies, organizations, and institutions – especially in times when guidance is needed.

Digitalization and law

A particular focus of his work is on the interface between law and digitalization. Buschmann deals intensively with the challenges and opportunities of digital transformation: data protection, artificial intelligence, platform regulation, digital sovereignty.

“Technology is changing our lives – but it must not replace our values, he says. For him, it is clear that digitalization needs a stable foundation of law, trust, and responsibility.
