BevNET’s spirits track is back at BevNET Live! Starting the Sunday prior to BevNET Live, and continuing through Monday, we’ll dive into the world of ready-to-drink spirits, while also providing a platform for emerging brands via the Cocktail Showdown.
Sunday, December 3rd, from 4PM to 5 PM PT, the Cocktail Showdown, will open the stage to innovative entrepreneurs spearheading up-and-coming ready-to-drink and ready-to-pour cocktail brands. Participants have the opportunity to pitch their brand in front of our live audience as well as the retailers, investors, suppliers, service providers, and fellow brands tuning into the livestream on BevNET.com, Brewbound.com and across all social platforms.
The Cocktail Showdown allows brand founders the opportunity to introduce their brand to the industry and establish a network of allies and advocates for future partnerships. The champion will take home the winning title as well as an advertising package on BevNET.com and Brewbound.com, valued at $10,000. Check out last year’s competition to see what it takes to win.
