Virtual get-togethers are so 2020.

While we are lucky to bring our international community together virtually in many ways, we are equally passionate about helping you find your local community of CPGers. In our 10 city hubs, we host regular meet-ups and networking events to bring your relationships off-screen. Whether you’re bonding over the coolest new brands or local foodie faves, our events are a great opportunity to find likeminded individuals and build meaningful connections — over an (emerging) bev, of course.

Join Us At The Next Event!

Being a brand owner in Chicago is like being part of a big, quirky family—where everyone’s got your back and is just as passionate about local business as you are. As the Community Leader for the Chicago chapter of Startup CPG, I’ve had the joy of connecting some seriously awesome people who, together, make magic happen. The energy here? Absolutely electric! It’s inspiring to watch our community not just support but challenge each other to push boundaries. Honestly, there’s nothing better than bringing people together and seeing what sparks fly. I’m thrilled to be in the middle of it all!

“Startup CPG has been instrumental in getting my brand off the ground. I’ve met so many helpful people who fill my knowledge gaps and gained a community of friends who are all going through the same thing. I recommend it to every CPG entrepreneur I meet.”

This has been an invaluable resource. I love that they bring on experts to take deep dives on every topic imaginable. Whenever a new challenge comes up or there’s a topic I want to learn more about, I check here first!

I was particularly impressed with the recent Meta Ads episode and felt that Daniel knew all the right, juicy questions to ask. I love that all learnings and tips are in the specific context of CPG, which makes them transferable and actionable. Thank you, StartupCPG!

As a small brand, it’s easy to feel like you’re alone. The Startup CPG podcast is an amazing resource for anyone interested in growing a brand and learning from those who’ve done it.

This company, their podcast, their webinars, their lists, their slack community… It almost feels like cheating if you’re a founder of a CPG company. I’ve connected with so many critical resources. For example, I’m saving 50-200% on shipping after signing up for a resource they recommended!! My margins have never looked so good! I nearly cried when I saw the numbers. I no longer feel like I’m living on an island winging it. Thank you SO SO much!!
