Ariadna Navarro from VSA Partners on Creating the Next Breakthrough Web3 Brands

Ariadna helps clients identify growth potential by identifying the intersection between brand and business strategy, human needs and customer experience. She oversees a team of 18 strategists at VSA, and uses analytics, experience design, innovation and brand and business strategy to find unique opportunities for clients from IBM to AT&T. Ariadna is relentlessly curious, whether it’s figuring out the future of Quantum computing or deeply understanding how a new acquisition fits within a company’s portfolio. While solving problems is what drives her, she is particularly passionate about portfolio strategy, brand strategy and unearthing powerful human insights. Ariadna joined VSA after heading up strategy at Interbrand. She is originally from Venezuela, but has called New York home for a very long time.
