Bold Orange was founded on the belief that authentic human connections are the most powerful driver of progress. Today, we’re celebrating a leader who brings that belief to life every day. Our Founder & CEO Margaret Murphy has been named to the 2026 Inc. Magazine Female Founders 500, recognizing the most dynamic women entrepreneurs shaping the future of business. When Margaret founded Bold Orange in 2017, she had a clear conviction: brands needed a better way to drive growth. One that puts customer experience at the center—and brings strategy, creative, technology, and data together to make it happen. That vision has grown Bold Orange into a nationally recognized customer experience company built on integrated thinking and meaningful connection. But if you ask the Bold Orange team, Margaret's story goes beyond business growth. It’s about the leader who built a company where people feel seen, challenged, and inspired to do their best work. Congratulations, Margaret. We’re proud to be building Bold Orange with you. Read more about this honor here: https://lnkd.in/gvm4KpHd #IncFemaleFounders #BoldOrange #BOCO

AI is rewriting the rules of customer experience. But tools alone won’t win the next decade.   Ranked #1 Futurist by Forbes, Jonathan Brill has resided as a Futurist at Amazon, and has guided global brands like Microsoft, JP Morgan, and SAP to turn AI disruption and global uncertainty into competitive advantage.   At CX Midwest 2026, he’ll share the proven transformation framework he uses with executive teams — equipping leaders to shift from hierarchy to agility, from product-centric to data-driven, and from reactive to resilient.   The future won’t reward trend watching. It'll reward decisive, informed action in the age of AI.   #CXMidwest2026 #BoldThoughtThursday #JonathanBrill #BOCO #BoldOrange
