Covering all your business pain points - from compliance to consumer demand.
We also offer one-off workshops, from 45 minutes to three hours long, where we take a deep-dive into a single topic and answer your questions.
They’re open to anyone, and perfect for those who are either starting out or who just want to get some more knowledge on one particular subject. You’ll meet others in your industry, learn necessary skills, hear from relevant experts, and apply your newfound practical knowledge to your business straight away.
We cover a huge range of topics, including regulations and compliance, marketing, branding and packaging, consumer demand testing, and process development. Our courses focus on specific pain-points for new businesses.
See our Eventbrite page for all upcoming workshops and events.
