Founders' Innovation Day Returns to Nashville

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — On November 10, retailmediaIQ and ECRM will once again bring together founders, retailers and industry leaders for the 3rd Annual Founders' Innovation Day. The annual event has become a gathering place for emerging brands looking to gain valuable insights, build meaningful connections and better navigate today's evolving retail landscape.

Built for the next generation of brands

Designed specifically for founders and entrepreneurs, the one-day program features conversations with retail executives and industry experts on topics including merchandising, retail partnerships, omnichannel strategy and scaling a growing business. Attendees will hear firsthand what today's buyers are looking for and how brands can position themselves for long-term success.

Connecting innovators with retail leaders

Founders' Innovation Day offers more than educational sessions. Throughout the day, attendees will have opportunities to connect with retailers, investors, fellow founders and industry partners in an environment designed to spark collaboration and new business opportunities.

This year's event will feature executives from leading retailers, including Target, Walmart, CVS Pharmacy, Whole Foods Market, Kroger, Stop & Shop, The Fresh Market, Schnucks, Lowe's Foods and Thrive Market.

Founders' Innovation Day is made possible through the support of our valued partners. We're proud to welcome The Emerson Group as this year's Premier Sponsor, with additional support from NielsenIQ, Eagle Labs Inc., Market Performance Group, CPGX, Wildflower Insight and Hydrate Complete, our Official Hydration Sponsor.
