MARIE BERRY

I'm a global marketing executive and serial entrepreneur, operating at the intersection of creativity and technology. Having led marketing across the globe for brands like adidas, Chanel, and Ford, I've developed a deep appreciation for the power of storytelling in diverse cultural contexts. I've founded and exited two startups, which has given me profound respect for anyone building something from scratch.

MY MANTRA

I believe in the power of ScrappY Dreams to craft BEAUTIFUL, bold realities. TRUSTING my inner WHISPER TO GUIDE me is my daily practice.

DO Cool SHIT WITH PEOPLE YOU RESPECT

Passionate about technology and the arts, I’m currently the Chief Marketing Officer at Jayaram, a company that provides legal, strategic, and business advice to the most creative people and brands on the planet. I love contributing to the ever-evolving dialogue between art/cultures, technology and business.

BE YOUR OWN PROTOTYPE

I view myself as a work in progress, constantly evolving. Each decade brings a new version: corporate marketer in my 20s, founder and investor in my 30s, and now shaping a hybrid path as an art-centered operator and CMO. This spirit of reinvention extends beyond my career— rediscovering contemporary art fuels my creativity, and my daily practice of mind and body keeps me honest.

ONCE A FOUNDER, ALWAYS A FOUNDER

Entrepreneurship rewired my brain. Through founding two startups, I've internalized the thrill of building from scratch. It's a unique blend of adrenaline, fear, and unshakeable belief. Most importantly, it has taught me to find beauty in chaos and opportunity in setbacks. This founder mindset now infuses everything I do, from reimagining established brands to leading any business to the next level.
