Merridith Ingram, co-founder of 66 + Co, will be the speaker for our June launch of BizBrew, a Friday-morning coffee series dedicated to tech, women and values-rooted entrepreneurship. As a consummate storyteller and strategist, Merridith has built several successful companies and a career that has ranged from Dow Jones journalist to creator of major communications campaigns for Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft, Intuit and Philips. But her magic touch is not limited to large corporations and she has a special place in her heart and business helping startup companies and providing pro bono services to some of the most influential technology organizations in the world, including the Internet Society and the Internet Engineering Task Force giving her insight into what makes technology tick and the newest ideas about how to better the world through technology. After moving to Santa Fe from New York City in 2015, Merridith founded the website, Silicon66, and restructured and re-branded her integrated communications and marketing agency. The new company, 66 + Co, is based on globally-conscious values and she was amazed at how deeply the new messages resonated with her audience. In this re-branding, she and her business partners were able to grow their business exponentially in spite of relocating to a smaller market. Merridith says that her per-eminent communications objective is, "Action with purpose," and that two essential keys to reaching your target audience is to know, "Who you are trying to reach and what change your are trying to effect." At 66 + Co she helps clients connect with audiences through providing engaging content, developing inspiring narratives, strategizing the navigation and leverage through the digital environment, using creativity to effect change and intelligently planning blueprints for success that combine hard data with tactical ingenuity -- all things we would be wise to include in our own business planning.
