Sample the Latest Beverage Innovations
Pitching your product is great, but sometimes taste just speaks for itself. To move conversations forward and set you up for potential partnerships, beverages from attending brands are showcased in sampling fridges throughout the event. This makes it easier for brands and industry executives to connect and do business. Go beyond your pitch and form more meaningful relationships with industry investors, retailers, suppliers and service providers.
There are two sampling options for attendees. Non-alcoholic beverage products are sampled via self-service sample fridges throughout the event. Products that contain alcohol or THC (industrial hemp derived) or are meant for a party environment, such as a mocktail, are sampled during the Happy Hour at the end of Day 1.
You must be a registered attendee of BevNET Live Summer 2024 to sample.
