It’s time to reveal the first two NOSH Live Breakout Sessions, which take place on Wednesday, December 4th, and allow attendees to choose which topics are most important to their business. The first round of panelists feature retail and investment gurus who will guide food brands on their growth journey.

We’re excited to announce the official agenda for NOSH Live Winter 2019 which takes place next month at the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel. Hundreds of natural food professionals are already registered for the industry event which is now only 20 days away.

At NOSH Live Winter 2019 we’ll investigate the impact of the emerging cannabis space on the natural food industry. As part of this exploration we’ll learn about the methods and styles of infusing better-for-you functional food products with cannabis-derived ingredients and the state of the market with regards to how consumers and retailers are responding.

At NOSH Live Winter 2019 next month, natural food brands will learn about global design company IDEO’s “human-centered design approach” as a tool for solving unmet needs in the marketplace, and how they can implement those same strategies at their own companies.

The clock is ticking! In less than 12 hours early registration rates for NOSH Live Winter 2019 expire and ticket prices will jump $200. NOSH Live, a two-day event focused on the needs and challenges of natural food companies, returns to Santa Monica, CA on December 4th and 5th.

How has the adoption of a mostly centralized buying model changed the ability of young brands to grow in Whole Foods Market? During times of change, how is leadership supporting and guiding innovative brands? Dan Epley, the Vice President for Whole Foods Market’s Grocery Team, will join the NOSH Live Winter 2019 speaker lineup to lay out the retailer’s current approach to supporting emerging food brands and helping them grow within the adapted system.
