We don’t always get to pick the categories we work in. We don’t always get to pick the work we work on. And we don’t always get to pick the clients we work with. That is what we call life, and you learn good things from it. But every so often, it’s as if you did get to pick, and then you get to work with Sara Mendez Bermudez. As a leader, she is passionate, disciplined, informed, and focused. As a human she is just—RADIANT. Tune in when Mira, Clare, and Sara hit the Red & Co. stage for a deep dive into how this CMO engineered not only a turnaround for Babyganics—but brought the whole category with her.

Founded by Mira Kaddoura in 2014, Red & Co. opened its doors to challenge the status quo of inert media, empty communication, and general brand meaninglessness. At a time when more people have more access to more brands than ever before, brands have the opportunity to become relevant and necessary actors in society, but so often, they just rely on muscle memory.

 


Having worked at Wieden + Kennedy, and for some of the world’s greatest clients, Mira began to put together a team of diverse thinkers from around the world.

 


The dream? To build a place that focuses not just on comms, not just on saying and being seen, but on acting and doing things in the world that actually make a difference.

 


We want to help brands make a larger, more meaningful impact on society. 

 


To make brand work that lasts beyond a media cycle, that challenges people not just as consumers, but as human beings. As professionals, artists, citizens, parents, and conscious consumers, we hug our work with strategy, creativity, and technology to push past the expected into truly generative territory.

 


Today Red & Co. has offices in Portland and Amsterdam and a network that extends around the world. We work exclusively with people of all shapes, sizes, genders, races, ages, creeds, and planets and work humanely, sustainably, efficiently, and, most of all, ambitiously. Mira is proud to sit on the boards of the <a href="https://didi.ac.ae/">Dubai Institute of Design and innovation</a>, <a href="https://www.600andrising.com/">600 & Rising</a>, and the <a href="https://pica.org/">Portland Institute for Contemporary Art</a> to continue to feed our culture through creativity, design, and diversity.

 


Great brands question everything — Doesn’t it make sense to work with a partner who does the same?

Intro block

As an early leader in organic baby products, Babyganics innovated in the baby care aisle. But competitor brands soon followed, creating a tougher marketplace in which this brand was just one of many choices. At a time when moms, dads, and caregivers are struggling with a pandemic and other social issues, this integrated campaign offered a chance to solve a business problem and a cultural problem at the same time, creating empathy and acceptance in a remarkably judgmental culture and uplifting the unrecognized work that diverse parents and caregivers are doing every day.

How can diversity be a good content strategy?

<h2 style="margin-bottom: 30px;">The Story</h2>Having disrupted first the video store industry, then the DVD industry, and then the cable industry, Netflix is now known for its high-volume on-demand entertainment streaming. With a $12 Billion production budget and outposts around the world, Netflix’s success is epic, but also problematic. Companies like Disney and Apple are moving into streaming digital entertainment, and much of Netflix’s content is licensed from studios now building their own streaming platforms. Even with hundreds of original shows in production, Netflix knows that the near future will feature more competition from huge and beloved brands. What will Netflix be known for once its flagship shows are reclaimed by studios creating their own platforms?

We all know Netflix has an infinite array of diverse films and shows. But why?
