Register for Naturally San Diego’s 1st Annual Pitch Slam | April 8th @ 4 pm
This past year has been a record-breaking one for CPG natural products, particularly the smaller, emerging brands in the natural foods space, that are quickly capturing market share, as consumers look to support passionate entrepreneurs and local brands serving up delicious, nutritious food and beverages.
With our community at the heart of everything we do, at Naturally San Diego, we are proud to announce our first annual, virtual Pitch Slam on Thursday, April 8th at 4 pm!
In its inaugural year, Naturally San Diego’s live-hosted and virtually-broadcast Pitch Slam will give natural products entrepreneurs the stage to pitch their up-and-coming companies to a panel of experts and audience members, ultimately winning a suite of prizes from our local San Diego community to help propel their industry growth!
ATTEND PITCH SLAM ON APRIL 8TH
Your Pitch Slam registration will include:
- A front-row seat/screen to watch the best and brightest emerging natural brands in SoCal pitch their products.
- A celebratory sample box filled with products & swag from our Pitch Slam finalists and our very own Naturally San Diego Sponsors.
