If you indicated a food allergy or dietary preferences on your ticket, we will let the catering staff know ahead of time. We have asked that all dishes be clearly labelled.

We do not have a formal dress code, although most peole dress business casual.

This is a fun and fast-paced experience! We strongly encourage you to practice and perfect your B2B elevator pitch before you arrive: craft a concise 1-minute introduction to introduce your business, your brand, and your current products.

The elevator pitch applies to Producers and Services primarily, as you will be presenting your business. Retailers come prepared with your business cards!

→ Retailers: bring business cards to share with those you make connections with!
→ Producers: will pitch to Retailers
→ Ancillary Services: will pitch to Producers or Retailers, depending your business

We’ll guide you through this fast-paced activity with the goal of making impactful connections that can be further developed as we move into lunch and beyond.
