The Brewbound Pitch Slam returns in-person to the Brewbound Live stage on November 30 + December 1 in Santa Monica, California. The competition provides a stage for startups within the beer, cider, hard seltzer, hard tea, hard coffee, and alcoholic kombucha segments to share their story, pitch their product, and connect with the community.
Emerging beer and alcoholic beverage brands will provide attendees a look into the future of the industry. Finalists have the opportunity to receive feedback on their pitch as well as their beverages from a panel of influential industry judges. The pitches will take place in front of a live audience of industry veterans, potential partners, and hundreds of online viewers looking to see “what’s next” in the world of beer and beyond.
During the competition, finalists present a five minute pitch, field questions from the judges, and receive actionable feedback that can take their brand to the next level. Judges can include retailers, investors, brokers and other industry experts.
The Pitch Slam allows beer and alcoholic beverage brands to take the spotlight during Brewbound Live. All competitors benefit from industry exposure, opening the door for strategic conversations and future partnerships. In addition to recognition, the brand that receives the winning title also receives a Brewbound advertising package valued at $10,000 and free registration to Brewbound Live Winter 2022.
