Tapping into the design zeitgeist with Minted CEO Mariam Naficy

from Business of Home Podcast · host Business of Home

A little more than a decade ago, the world of digital printing was a different place, dominated by manufacturers and largely devoid of artists and designers. In 2007, Mariam Naficy set out to change that, founding Minted as a stationery company that would use emerging tech to promote the work of independent artists and designers. Nearly 15 years later, the company continues to stay ahead of the curve through its crowdsourced design competitions—giving consumers a hand in what’s sold on the site while simultaneously offering an early glimpse into rising trends.This episode is sponsored by Crypton Home Fabrics and Hooker Furniture. LINKSMintedDennis ScullyBusiness of Home
