Konica Minolta’s Stacey Sujeebun Honored as a 2021 Women Influencer

(PRESS RELEASE) RAMSEY, NJ – Stacey Sujeebun, marketing communications director for Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., has been named by The Cannata Report as one of its 2021 Women Influencers.

The honor is included in the media brand’s annual “Women Influencers” issue that promotes vital contributions made by women in the industry. This year’s cover story highlighted curiosity as a key component of success.

Stacey Sujeebun joined Konica Minolta nearly 10 years ago from the marketing agency side, where she worked as a consultant within brand communication and media agencies in London, providing advice on rebranding, repositioning, and stakeholder engagement initiatives. She is a Chartered Institute of Marketing-qualified marketing professional and holds an MSc in Social Anthropology from University College London.

“Being named a Women Influencer by The Cannata Report is something I have aspired to for a number of years, and the theme of this year’s program really struck a chord with me,” says Sujeebun. “The pandemic challenged us to rethink how we do things, find new opportunities and better ways to execute, and that is where the element of curiosity really comes into play. By being curious and asking questions, it allows us to be even more innovative than ever before.”

Sujeebun is best-known throughout Konica Minolta for helping reposition the organization’s reputation from a brand previously known for cameras and printers. She spearheaded the launch of Konica Minolta’s Workplace Hub, unveiling the product at Konica Minolta’s ‘Spotlight’ event in Berlin in March of 2017. This was the first global product release of this nature in company history.

In 2018, Sujeebun took on marketing for All Covered, Konica Minolta’s IT services division. Since that time, All Covered has won multiple awards and gained traction in the media.

In 2019, she led the company’s marketing efforts at Printing United, helping generate sales of nearly 70 percent over target. Most recently, when the pandemic changed nearly every aspect of work, Sujeebun developed a virtual event strategy to serve dealers and customers remotely.

“I am so proud to see Stacey recognized by The Cannata Report with this honor,” says Kay Fernandez, senior VP of marketing at Konica Minolta and 2014 Women Influencer. “She has an amazing ability to not only overcome challenges that come her way but thrive in the face of them, and through her leadership her team has successfully driven engagement and sales within a dynamic business environment.”

“Stacey Sujeebun is an innovative, strategic marketer distinguished for her dynamic and unique contributions to Konica Minolta’s successful marketing platforms. She is an out-of-the-box thinker driven by what ifs and why nots, resulting in inspirational initiatives,” says CJ Cannata, president and CEO of The Cannata Report. “Stacey is a leading role model in the industry’s new generation of influencers and stands out for her passion for making a difference, whether professionally or personally. We are proud to name her a 2021 Women Influencer.”
