THE PEOPLE:

BETH STONE, the proprietor and founder of PANGAEA, International Consultants has extensive multinational business experience, has traveled the globe and worked with leaders in the consumer packaged goods and services industries on six continents.

For the five years prior to founding PANGAEA in 1993, Beth lead the development of the international strategic planning group as Vice President at Backer Spielvogel Bates Worldwide (BSBW) at their New York City headquarters. She created a cohesive network of marketing and research professionals in more than 30 countries*, which prospered from the exchange of ideas and information. She provided insights about marketing across borders for the agency's vast client base -- for clients including Wendy's, M&M Mars, Estee Lauder, Electrolux, Tambrands, Fisher Price, Campbell's, Eveready and others. She directed the company's proprietary multinational lifestyle segmentation study, called GLOBAL SCAN, and expanded its coverage from 7 countries to over 20. She also developed and taught training programs overseas for BSBW executives.

Prior to this, Beth was Group Head in the Strategic Planning department at Lowe Marschalk, addressing clients' domestic strategic issues. Clients included: Coca Cola USA, Nabisco, Gillette, Citibank, Sony, Braun and others.

She received her MBA from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, with a concentration in International Marketing, 1982. In addition to her proficiency in German, Beth has completed her fifth semester of Spanish.

Moreover, Beth is an avid traveler. When traveling, she mostly enjoys meeting local people, experiencing the local culture, including its cuisine and exploring venues generally not sought out by tourists. A tour of local supermarkets is a welcome treat.
