SYAMA BUNTEN
C-Suite Executive, Leadership Coach, Investor and Advisor.
I’m a career c-suite executive who is passionate about women building wealth. I’m currently heading up Sona Technologies, leading a group of brilliant innovators building at the intersection of music and technology, and advising companies like INFLUENCE (blockchain enabled social advertising) and Fetti (GenZ career marketplace).
Retail is the arena I’m most known in. I started my career at Barneys New York, Gucci and later launching Scaling Retail. At Scaling Retail I launched brands for the United Nations, conducted trainings for retail development at the City of Coral Gables, and have worked globally with clients in Paris, Shanghai, Nigeria. I’ve been awarded WWD Top Women in Retail, Thought Leader of The Year, and other awards in entrepreneurship.
As an educator, and evangelist I’ve been an invited speaker at Parsons, FIT, FIDM, Tory Burch Foundation, American Express, SAP, INFORMA amongst others. My thought leadership has reached Forbes, Inc., NPR, and the Financial Times.
I’m a step mom to three boys, and wife to an entrepreneur. We live between San Francisco, and Boise, Idaho.
