Founders. Operators. Industry Leaders. Investors.
Twice a year we host the consumer industry's best room: one summit for Consumer Tech, one for Consumer Brands. Our last Consumer Brand Summit brought together Martha Stewart and the founders of Tru Fru, Chomps, and CAVA.
On Wednesday, October 28th, we're doing it again. Here's what you can expect:
