Amy K Stanton, Founder & CEO, S&Co
Built upon a background in conventional marketing and extensive experience in growing and building female-oriented brands, Stanton introduces a unique perspective on the feminine landscape, the impact of unleashing the true feminine power on one’s happiness, and the role that femininity plays in personal and professional lives.
Prior to founding S&Co, Amy served as Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia’s first chief marketing officer (CMO) and as the head of marketing and communications for New York’s Olympic bid in 2012 (NYC2012). For the NYC2012, Stanton developed and implemented local and international marketing campaigns. Amy started her marketing journey as an account manager in advertising agencies like BBH, BBDO, and JWT.
To boot, Stanton’s experience in building different female-focused brands and a variety of strong relationships with powerful women influencers has inspired her thinking about femininity and how women can achieve their full potential.
To cement her position, Stanton, together with Catherine Connors, co-authored the book The Feminine Revolution. The book challenges the idea that femininity equals weakness and encourages women to embrace their feminine qualities as a source of power. At the same time, she has received accolades from brands like BlogHer, Women in Sports and Events (WISE), and Sports Business Journal, while S&Co has been recognized as an industry leader.
