Anaheim, CA / March, 2024 / As part of the highly anticipated Natural Products Expo West 2024, the Natural Products Business School is set to return on Tuesday, March 12, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Marriott, Grand Ballroom F. This event in partnership with TIG Brands and New Hope Business School promises a half-day of invaluable learning and networking opportunities tailored specifically for emerging brands in the natural products industry.

TIG Brands believes in an alternative to the unicorn, where businesses grow for growth’s sake. Their accelerator 2.0 model focuses on nimble, capital-efficient and resilient businesses that they fondly refer to as “tardigrades.” TIG Brands provides entrepreneurs with advisory support, education, access, and community. The Natural Products Business School provides a unique platform for entrepreneurs to connect with industry experts and peers, offering insights and guidance to navigate the challenges and opportunities within the natural products space. Whether attendees are just starting their venture or seeking to elevate their business to the next level, the Business School aims to equip them with the knowledge, resources, and connections necessary for success.

Building a Personalized Learning Experience:

One of the highlights of this year’s event is the opportunity for attendees to customize their learning experience by selecting from a diverse range of topics during intimate table discussions led by industry experts. With topics ranging from fundraising essentials to marketing strategies and legal considerations, entrepreneurs can tailor their schedules to focus on areas relevant to their business goals. Attendees have the opportunity to choose to visit any of the many workshops during the event.

Attendees will have the chance to participate in multiple workshops throughout the day, earning stamps on their “report card” upon completion of each session. These stamps can be redeemed for a chance to win exciting prizes provided by TIG and New Hope Network at the end of the day, adding an element of fun and incentive to the learning experience.
