Background

About Shannon Carr

As Vice President of Marketing & Communications at i2E, I lead strategic brand, marketing, and storytelling efforts that fuel innovation and drive economic growth across Oklahoma. With 20 years of experience spanning startups, venture capital, nonprofits, healthcare, and creative services, I specialize in translating complex ideas into compelling narratives that move people to act. I currently oversee marketing and communications for both i2E and Plains Ventures, supporting high-growth entrepreneurs, founders, and early-stage companies through strategic messaging, ecosystem storytelling, and multi-channel campaigns. Whether it's amplifying the voice of a first-time founder or launching initiatives that support statewide commercialization, I bring vision, creativity, and execution to every brand I touch. I believe marketing is more than just messaging — it’s a catalyst for growth, alignment, and belief. If you’re building something meaningful, let’s connect.
