Accelerator - Consumer (2020)

Consumer Goods Accelerator Application (2020)

Creating and scaling a CPG company looks different today than it did at the beginning of 2020. The challenges vary greatly—whether it is determining how to best protect your employees, mitigating risk of a shutdown, reworking your pro-forma, expanding into new verticals and distribution models, and that’s just to name a few. This year’s Consumer Goods Accelerator will cover how to navigate these challenges and ultimately help build a path for success in the near and distant future.
