"We first attended Founderland as attendees, where some of the early conversations around PRÉS began. It’s become one of the few gatherings in CPG where founders, operators, and brands actually connect in a meaningful way."

The environment and culture that the Founderland team has built is second to none! We can't wait to be a partner again this year and for many years to come. "
