Marketing Communications Supervisor, Indium Corporation
Marcom Stars are great! So who wouldn’t want to have one (or more) on their team?
We supported the Women In Business 2005 awards program by running this ad. Go Anita!

Lucky for the Indium Corporation, a bona fide STAR is a key player on our corporate Marcom team. Meet Anita Brown.
Where to start…
Anita came to Indium Corporation in 2004 as a Marketing Communications Assistant with a great amount of experience in Marketing Communications in both the business and consumer arenas. She was quickly promoted to the position of Marketing Communications Supervisor in 2005 and then to Marketing Communications Manager in 2008. Her past positions included Director of Marketing & Public Relations and Vice President of Marketing. She has a Bachelor's degree in Business and Public Management and an MBA in Technology Management with a concentration in Marketing from the State University of New York Institute of Technology (SUNY IT).
Anita has proven her ability to quickly achieve our desired goals in a professional and collegial manner. Her activities support every one of our facilities, worldwide, each of our sales offices, and everyone acting on behalf of our company. She is responsible for organizing and executing Indium Corporation's global Marketing Communications strategies and activities. Her experience and skills are applied to a large number of efforts including:
- Advertising
- Trade exhibition planning and management
- Marcom planning and execution
- Placing and editing technical papers and articles for industry conferences, publications and other media
- Training meetings
- Tracking marcom expenditures globally and recommending cost efficiencies
- Special events
- and much more
Anita manages all these activities in locations as demanding and diverse as Mexico, China, Singapore, England, Malaysia, Hungary, Poland, the United States, Czech Republic, Scotland, and many, many more.
Anita’s greatest contribution is that she manages these activities with a level of professionalism and skill that inspires confidence and respect from her peers, both inside and outside of our company.
And speaking of "outside the company", Anita has quite an active life supporting our community. For example:

Anita was recognized by the Indium Corporation for her successful results-oriented style. She was chosen to represent the Marcom department at several internal and customer-focused sales meetings throughout the USA.
She sets the bar very high - and really distinguishes herself from most people in her field. When any accolades come to Indium's Marcom department, you can bet that Anita is involved. She is truly a Marcom Star.
