BATTLE CREEK, MI — Brandjectory, an online platform to connect early-stage CPG brands with accredited CPG investors, has announced five finalists for its 2023 Brandjectory Pitch Slam sponsored by Tetra Pak on Oct. 12, 2023.
The virtual two-hour event will begin at 2 p.m. ET with over $250,000 in cash and services awarded to finalists and a $25,000 cash prize for the winner. A virtual post-event networking session will follow at 4 p.m.
One of the finalists is The Humble Seed, a grain- and gluten-free, and paleo-friendly six-seed blended cracker brand, along with three companies from the beverage industry and a pasta brand.
“These five brands were selected by eighteen veteran CPG investors who found them to be ready for the future,” said Michael Movitz, co-founder of Brandjectory. “We look forward to showcasing these five founders who will be prepped and coached one-on-one by experienced CPG investors, get feedback and recommendations by a group of three more CPG investors, and finally face a panel of five CPG investors on Oct. 12 at the live virtual event. New this year is an investor day on Oct. 18 for investors to meet one-on-one with these great brands.”
The event will be co-hosted by CPG veterans and Promomash founders Yuval Selik and Alla Korot. CEO of Vdriven, Luke Abbott, will be in attendance to provide insight on the brand pitches and entertainment will be provided by Steve Hoffman, founder of Compass Natural.
“Brandjectory has become the gold standard for preparing CPG founders and brands for investment, and last year’s Pitch Slam proves just that,” said Tom Malengo, co-founder of Brandjectory. “Last year’s winner, Olyra, secured a $4 million investment soon after the Pitch Slam.”
