About Lantana’s Founder, Lauren Bauml:

Although mission and purpose have served as the northstar in my two decades-long career, it’s my time in higher education that has left the greatest mark on me.

I’ve witnessed first-hand that high-quality education and professional opportunity are society’s greatest equalizers. Equipping learners, of every background, with the right technical and employable skills for the career ahead is the key to overcoming gender, racial, socioeconomic, and community-wide inequalities.

And we are all better for it.

I’ve had the privilege of working with the first-of-their-kind EdTech and FinTech startups, reshifting the educational landscape to access and return on education for all, via B2C and B2B2C models.

Founder Lantana Partners

Whether leading in marketing, strategic communications, brand strategy, public affairs, business development, partner success, or partner implementation strategy, I’m a proven leader pushing the boundaries of status quo to jointly identify how we more effectively serve our cause.

Now, I turn my efforts to leading Lantana Partners, a full-service brand, marketing and strategic communications firm for entrepreneurs, early- to mid-stage startups, and mission-focused organizations. Although our focus is higher education, our current client portfolio spans across industry lines.

The growing team at Lantana Partners includes a legion of experts in their respective domains, adding impact, perspective, and value to each campaign and client.

Under a mission to give a lasting voice to every great purpose, vision and story, Lantana Partners serves the visionaries, game changers, and pillars of their community, who are working tirelessly to improve the communities we all call home.
