What Goes On at NOSH Live
Inspiring Speakers Give You Actionable Takeaways
We love it when a speaker brings an insight that makes everyone think. We ask for best practices, battle stories or cases that focus on innovation, growth and the lessons learned in the process.
Your Brand, Center Stage
NOSH Live features the "Pitch Slam" which allows startup brands to get instant feedback from a group of expert judges, the NOSH community and the world. Also, Sampling Stations allow you to showcase your stuff and get thoughts from the people who know what you are up against.
Networking Opportunities to Drive New Partnerships
There is nothing like being there and experiencing NOSH live with people who want to make better products and find partners and share experiences. This is your chance to collaborate and build partnerships that will help you succeed.
Education to Get You Started
Bootcamp the day prior will get you started on the right foot. Build a solid foundation and have special access to additional networking. An added bonus for young food brands.
